This year's theme, "𝗥𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀: 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗴𝗻𝗶𝘇𝗲. 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁. 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗲.", reminds us that healthy rangelands are essential for food security, biodiversity, climate resilience, and sustainable livelihoods.

𝗜𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀, rangelands is composed of grasslands and brushlands, and cover 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘅𝗶𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝟱.𝟱 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗵𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗲𝘀, or about 𝟭𝟴.𝟱% 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗿𝘆'𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗮. These expansive landscapes are found across provinces such as Bukidnon, Cotabato, Nueva Ecija, Nueva Vizcaya, Isabela, Ilocos, Negros, Masbate, Samar, Tarlac, Palawan, and Mindoro, where they support livestock production, protect watersheds, and provide habitat for native wildlife.

Despite their importance, many of 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 due to unsustainable land use, invasive species, and changing climate conditions. Protecting and restoring rangelands through sustainable management can help secure ecosystem services, strengthen rural livelihoods, and enhance the country's resilience to drought and land degradation.

This Desertification and Drought Day 2026, let us recognize the value of our rangelands, respect the communities that have long cared for these landscapes, and restore them for future generations.

🌱 Recognize. Respect. Restore.

𝑭𝒓𝒐𝒎 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒄 𝑾𝒂𝒔𝒕𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝑭𝒐𝒐𝒅: 𝑻𝒖𝒓𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑨𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒐 𝑨𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 ♻️🌾

Last June 3, 2026, the Office of the City Environment and Natural Resources (OCENR) joined other city offices and national government agencies in the 2026 Serbisyo Caravan, one of the Retooled Community Support Program (RCSP) activities, held at the Homapon Covered Court, Barangay Homapon, Legazpi City.

The Serbisyo Caravan is designed to bring government services closer to communities by providing accessible programs and interventions that address local needs while encouraging active public participation and sustainable development.

As part of its environmental advocacy, OCENR conducted the "Plastics for Rice" Program, an initiative that allows residents to exchange collected plastic waste and other recyclable materials for rice based on the equivalent weight of the recyclables they bring.

More than a simple exchange, the program carries a deeper purpose. It demonstrates that materials often considered waste still have value when properly managed. By rewarding responsible waste disposal with a basic household necessity, the activity encourages families to practice waste segregation, reduce plastic pollution, and actively participate in keeping their communities clean.

In addition, OCENR carried out an Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) Campaign on the Ecological Solid Waste Management (ESWM) Program and the Septage Management Program to further strengthen public awareness on proper environmental practices. Informational flyers were also distributed to participants to promote responsible waste management, proper waste segregation, and the importance of proper septic tank maintenance and desludging in protecting public health and the environment.

The OCENR continues to advocate that protecting the environment is a shared responsibility and that small actions can create a lasting positive impact on our communities.

By transforming waste into a resource and promoting environmental education, we not only help protect the environment but also support families and inspire communities to become active partners in building a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable Legazpi City.

Every 𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗲 𝟭𝟱𝘁𝗵, the world comes together to celebrate the power of wind. First launched in 2009 through a joint initiative by the 𝗘𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗪𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗔𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 (𝗘𝗪𝗘𝗔) 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗹𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗹 𝗪𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗖𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗹 (𝗚𝗪𝗘𝗖), Global Wind Day has grown into a worldwide movement uniting partners and communities in highlighting wind energy's transformative role in our future.

Wind energy leads in the clean energy revolution, harnessing the natural power of the wind to generate efficient, reliable electricity. Unlike coal-powered plants, wind energy produces significantly lower greenhouse gas emissions, paving the way for greener communities, more sustainable jobs, and a world steadily moving toward full decarbonization.

As we mark this day, let's champion the shift to renewable energy and embrace the limitless potential the wind has to offer. 💨⚡

In celebration of World Environment Day (June 5, 2026) and World Ocean Day (June 8, 2026), the Office of the City Environment and Natural Resources (OCENR) spearheaded a simultaneous clean-up activity along the city’s roadside and coastal areas, reinforcing the importance of protecting both land and marine environments.

Cleanup efforts were conducted at Sawangan Area, Legazpi Marker, and along the Mega Highway going to Camella, where OCENR personnel actively collected waste, promoted proper solid waste segregation, and reminded the public of their shared responsibility in keeping the surroundings clean.

The initiative was further strengthened through the participation of Integrated Coastal Resource Management (ICRM) personnel, headed by Mr. Ryan Roy Acuña, reflecting strong collaboration and a unified commitment to coastal protection, environmental sustainability, and community awareness.

All 70 barangays were also mobilized to conduct the activity simultaneously within their areas of jurisdiction – either estero, river, coastal or any identified area within their barangay that needs cleanup.

This activity calls for strengthened environmental discipline and collective action against pollution and improper waste disposal. It reflects a shared commitment to environmental stewardship, reminding everyone that keeping our roads clean and coastal waters protected is essential in building a healthier and more sustainable community.

As we continue to celebrate these important environmental milestones, may we be reminded that a cleaner environment starts with consistent action, shared responsibility, and a strong commitment to caring for our planet.

The City Government of Legazpi formally reinforced its commitment to environmental education and youth engagement through a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) signing for the Earth Savers Program held on June 4, 2026, at the Audio-Visual Hall, 3/F BPLO Building, City Hall Compound, Legazpi City.

The MOA signing ceremony was led by City Mayor Hisham Ismail, together with Councilor Charlton S. Lajara, Chairperson on Environmental Protection, and Atty. Noel Allen Bose, City Legal Officer. Partner institutions include DepEd Legazpi City Division, Bicol University, UST–Legazpi, Divine Word College of Legazpi, St. Agnes Academy, DZGB Radio Station, and the Legazpi City Earth Savers Club. Also present were OCENR personnel headed by Engr. Linno Benju Q. Calleja, OIC-City ENRO.

The MOA establishes a strengthened collaboration aimed at advancing environmental awareness, education, and youth participation in environmental protection initiatives. It also ensures the sustained implementation of programs promoting sustainability and responsible stewardship of natural resources.

Rooted in the belief that education is key to environmental protection, the Earth Savers Program continues to empower the youth through school-based and community-driven initiatives.

Since its launch in 2011, the program has expanded significantly—from six participating schools to all 58 schools under the Dep-Ed Schools Division Office of Legazpi, and other public and private schools, elementary to tertiary, across the city.

Protecting the Heart of the World’s Marine Biodiversity

Every June 9, the world celebrates Coral Triangle Day to raise awareness and inspire action for the conservation of the Coral Triangle. This area is the global center of marine biodiversity spanning Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Papua New Guinea, Timor-Leste, and the Solomon Islands.

🪸 Covering 6 million square kilometers of ocean, this region is home to:
• 76% of the world's coral species
• 6 of the world's 7 marine turtle species
• More than 2,200 species of reef fish
• Countless communities who depend on healthy oceans for food security and livelihoods.

Despite its immense ecological value, the Coral Triangle faces increasing threats from climate change, pollution, overfishing, and habitat destruction. Protecting this marine treasure requires collective action from governments, communities, organizations, and individuals.

This Coral Triangle Day 2026, let us renew our commitment to safeguarding our seas through responsible stewardship, sustainable practices, and conservation efforts that will ensure a thriving ocean for future generations.

About the celebration:
Coral Triangle Day was first celebrated on June 9, 2012, and was initiated by the 𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗥𝗲𝗲𝗳𝘀, 𝗙𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗙𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 (𝗖𝗧𝗜-𝗖𝗙𝗙), a multilateral partnership of the six Coral Triangle countries. The annual observance was established to coincide with the global celebration of World Oceans Day and to promote awareness and conservation of the world's richest marine ecosystem.
