The Philippine government joins the rest of the world in observing Earth Day today, April 22.
“Binabati ko po ang lahat ng Happy Earth Day. Ito’y isang espesyal na araw para ipaalala ang kahalagahan na alagaan at protektahan ang Inang Kalikasan para sa susunod na henerasyon,” Malacañang said Thursday.
According to Spokesman Harry Roque, the Philippines is one of the countries most at risk from climate change.
“Ang Pilipinas ay isa sa most vulnerable na bansa sa epekto ng climate change. Dahil dito ang issue ng climate change ay relevant sa PIlipinas,” said Roque.
The Palace official also urged everyone to properly dispose of used face masks and face shields.
“Sa panahon ng pandemya, makakatulong ang lahat kahit sa munting paraan tulad ng pagtatapon ng wasto ng pinaggamitan na face mask at face shields. Gawin natin ito at ituro sa ating mga bata,” he stressed.
Roque likewise mentioned the government’s bike lane program, which aims to build 535 kilometers of bike lanes before the year ends.
