For the 9th edition of Miss Earth, no single final question was asked. Instead, images were flashed on screen and each of the eight finalists were tasked to tell something about it. Each candidate was given 30 seconds to express her thoughts on a particular environmental subject.[7] She interpreted the photos showing the problem of air pollution by saying: "I come from a country that has the largest rainforest in the world, and it is also known as the 'lungs of the world.' But we cannot just say that we are the 'lungs of the world' because my country produces a lot of air pollution as well."[7]
