Just last week, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources ordered the cancellation of the quarrying permits of three companies operating in the Upper Marikina River Basin Protected Landscape and Masungi Geopark Project.

The cancelled permits covered about 1,343 hectares of the Masungi protected area. The UMRBPL itself has a total land area of about 26,126 hectares. This covers parts of Antipolo City, Baras, Rodriguez, San Mateo, and Tanay, Rizal. It is crucial to protect the UMRBPL as it is instrumental in “regulating the flow of water” toward Metro Manila. It is also home to a diverse population of flora and fauna.

Waste management is another aspect of environmental protection. The DENR, through its Environmental Management Bureau , spearheaded the celebration of National Zero Waste Month last January to urge the public to take responsibility for their waste, disposing of every item properly in accordance with the zero waste guidelines: reuse, reduce, recycle.

Even enterprises and manufacturing companies are now subject to the newly enacted Extended Producers Responsibility Act of 2022 or RA 11898, which became law on July 30, 2022.

Every time we buy mindfully, refuse single-use plastics, recycle or upcycle, we are saving our planet. Many of us are taking it even further by composting our organic waste, building rain basins, joining environmental groups, volunteering our time and resources on behalf of earth-friendly causes, and so on. Carry on; it is everyone’s responsibility to protect our only home.
