Negros Occidental molasses spill
On August 7, 2024, molasses from MT Mary Queen of Charity, a ship that was carrying over 300 metric tons of the syrup at the time, leaked into the waters off Sagay Feeder Port in Sagay, Negros Occidental, Philippines. The spill caused a 1.3-hectare (3.2-acre) water discoloration within the Sagay Marine Reserve, the largest marine reserve in the country.[1][2][3]
