"Our Power, Our Planet"

Around 100 individuals composed of uniformed personnel, Lgu San Joaquin personnel, MFARMC members, Marine Sanctuary Operation Unit Managers, Fisherfolks, Barangay & SK Officials, Eco-Scouts members, 4H Club representatives, Youth and Community members gathered to celebrate the at Barangay Crossing Dapuyan, San Joaquin, Iloilo.

Almost 30 sacks of trashes, mostly single-use plastics and residual wastes, were collected in an estimated 2-kilometer Coastal and Riverbanks Clean Up activity.

This was followed by a Symposium on "Planting and Caring Nypha Tree: A Nature-Based Solution in Mitigating the Effects of Flooding."

Overall, this year, we saw the power of what we can do when we come and work together in protecting our planet.
