What Batangas Might Lose If We Dismiss Environmental Advocacies

Although the calendar says today, April 22 (in the Philippines), is the Earth Day, we can create a greater impact to push the essence of this date if we make each day of the year an Earth Day.

You’ve read, heard, seen a lot of things about how we can protect Mother Earth and hopefully, we all get the sense of joining fun runs in support of environment protection and registering to non-profit organizations that promote eco-friendly projects.

If Batangueños don’t take such environmental protection moves seriously, we’d be losing a lot. Batangas is endowed with natural gems that we all take pride of. But it must not end there. Loving everything we have does not end in being proud of the natural wonders of the province. Being a responsible inhabitant of this piece of paradise we call Batangas is above all, the most important contribution we could extend to Mother Earth.

If in health matters we say prevention is better than cure, perhaps for nature we can say preservation is better than restoration, right? So that we’d still be able to see all these loveliness for as long as we’re here.

It’s time we do our part. Happy Earth Day! 😉
