"We need to cut trees for development" - DENR

'Development' that means cutting down trees amid the worsening climate crisis is not real development.

As extreme heat and flooding intensify, we need trees and green spaces even more to help protect the health, livelihoods, and safety of our communities. Development should be centered on people and the environment, not on their destruction.

We strongly condemn the massacre of trees under the San Miguel Corporation’s SALEX Project and urge authorities to not just suspend but PERMANENTLY CANCEL plans to cut more trees.

Happy World day! 🌱

On , we are reminded of our shared responsibility to protect and preserve the planet we call home. From conserving natural resources to reducing pollution, every small action counts.

Let us commit to building a greener, cleaner, and more sustainable future for generations to come. 🌍

The Philippines nowadays experiencing an isolating, polluted, and crowded communities, due to lack of urban planning.

Urbanization is reshaping our cities—but sometimes not for the better, especially if it is poorly managed. This leads to overcrowding, a huge contributor to pollution, and declining quality of life, as seen in worsening air conditions and limited green spaces.

This issue is one of the common contributor to Global Warming due to lack of green spaces that absorb carbon dioxide and other toxic gas.

But there’s a way forward. Green urbanization offers a solution—integrating nature into city planning through parks, sustainable transport, renewable energy, and eco-friendly infrastructure.

🌱 Cleaner air.
🌱 Healthier communities.
🌱 When a cities and nature thrive together; it brings brighter, healthier, and safer community.

Question: Do you see your community as well organized? How?

A pleasant day.

We encourage everyone to join us in our workshop on tree planting on May 11-12, 2026 at Cabaroan, San Emilio, Ilocos Sur, with the theme: Branching out: Uniting for a Greener and Healthier World.

We aim to promote and act for the betterment of our environment— decreasing the severe heat on our community. This helps not only you as an individual but also our dear farmers.Your participation is highly appreciated.

Ang init ng panahon! Alam niyo ba na ang kawayan ay isang natural air conditioner?

Tumutulong ito na mapababa ng temperatura ng hanggang 8°C na siyang naglilikha ng mas preskong kapaligiran, lalo na sa mga lugar na kulang sa lilim at luntiang espasyo.

Sa pagsugpo ng climate change, bawat tanim ay may ambag. Ating protektahan ang kawayan at palawakin ang pagtatanim nito para sa mas malamig, mas luntian, at mas matatag na komunidad.

That the Causes of Global Warming are:

1. Greenhouse gases are the primary cause of global warming. These gases include carbon dioxide, nitrous oxides, methane, and certain compounds containing chlorine and bromine. The accumulation of these gases in the atmosphere disrupts radiative equilibrium, leading to the heating of Earth's surface and lower atmosphere. Greenhouse gases absorb some of Earth's incoming radiation and re-radiate it back to the surface.

2. The depletion of the ozone layer, which is partly due to gases containing chlorine. These gases dissociate chlorine atoms when exposed to ultraviolet light, which then catalyze the destruction of ozone. In addition, aerosols contribute to global warming in two ways. First, they scatter and absorb solar and infrared radiation. Second, they can alter the microphysical and chemical properties of clouds, affecting their lifetime and duration. While scattering of solar radiation by aerosols can have a cooling effect on the planet, the absorption of solar radiation by aerosols actively warms the atmosphere, preventing Earth's surface from absorbing sunlight.

3. Human activities contribute to aerosol levels in the atmosphere in various ways:

A. 𝐁𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐟 𝐅𝐨𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐥 𝐅𝐮𝐞𝐥𝐬

Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil, and gas) releases massive amounts of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. These gases blanket the planet, trapping the sun's heat—a process known as the greenhouse effect—which prevents it from escaping into space, ultimately causing global temperatures to rise.

B. 𝐃𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧

Deforestation fuels global warming by releasing stored carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and removing trees that absorb emissions. When forests are burned or cleared, they stop acting as carbon "sinks" and become carbon sources, accounting for roughly 10–13% of total global greenhouse gas emissions.

C. 𝐔𝐫𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧

Construction and demolition activities create dust clouds which, when resuspended by wind or traffic, contribute to levels of suspended particulate matter. This often underestimated phenomenon significantly impacts air pollution in urban areas, especially in growing cities.
