00:00Arbor Day here in the homeland is celebrated on the 25th of June, which was less than 48 hours ago.

00:07Coincidentally, the PCO chief led a tree planting project today in light of worsening floods in the megacity

00:13and in response to the growing and adverse effects of climate change, as our J.M. Pineda reports.

00:21In the past several days, Metro Manila and nearby provinces experienced unpredictable weather,

00:27like heavy rain that quickly causes flooding.

00:30Some areas that were not affected by floods in the past are now actually experiencing rapid flooding in just a few minutes of heavy rain.

00:37Amidst all this, nature remains our ally in preventing major disasters, which is why it must be protected in all parts of the Philippines.

00:45This is the goal of the Presidential Communication Office, or PCO, through its tree planting and waste retrieval activity.

00:51PCO Secretary Jay Ruiz personally led the activity, held in Barangay San Roque, San Jose del Monte, Bulacan,

00:57an area rich in natural resources.

00:59He emphasized that caring for nature lies in each individual's hand.

01:03Una, yung responsibility. Responsibilidad ng bawat mamamayang Pilipino na malinis at syempre,

01:13yung basurang itinapon ay dapat ni-recycle po yan.

01:16Ang Barangay San Roque, ito pa kasi is ehemplo po ito ng sustainable development,

01:22na bagamat may development ay kinakailangan natin na dapat mangyari is kinakailangan na sustainable yan,

01:30na dapat pangalagaan.

01:32Secretary Ruiz also said that the planting of trees symbolizes the value and love for our natural resources

01:38and our commitment to fighting climate change, which is believed to cause various calamities.

01:43Kung kaya't ngayon pa lang, ang pagtatanim ng puno ay napakahalaga.

01:49Kunwari, tayo, sabay-sabay tayo, bawat isa sa atin magtanim ng puno,

01:55110 million Filipino sabay-sabay.

01:57Nakikita natin yung epekto niyan dahil lilinis ang hangin natin, magkakaroon tayo ng shade, at marami pang iba.

02:06I-further stress the importance of Filipinos valuing nature, which is also a national asset.

02:11Aside from fighting climate change, protecting the environment also helps achieve food security.

02:16Minsan, hindi natin ito pinapahalagaan na pwede po na pala natin itong gawing natural resource.

02:24Magtanim ka dyan, makukuha mo yung pagkain mo dyan.

02:27Sa araw na ito, ipinapakita natin po yung kahalagahan ng ating kalikasan.

02:32This aligns with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'s advocacy to protect and enrich the environment,

02:37which is a key pillar of his administration's sustainable development goals.

02:41The activity will also benefit the farmers of San Roque Aplan Farmers Reform Cooperative,

02:46who have been tasked to take care of the planted trees in the area.

02:49JM Pineda, from the National TV Network, for a new and better Philippines.
