The Office of the Sangguniang Bayan, in coordination with the Municipal Environment and Natural Resources Office, the Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Office, and the Barangay Council of Maputi conducted a Mangrove Planting in Barangay Maputi, Naawan Misamis Oriental.
Mangroves play a crucial role in coastal communities by providing protection from storms, preventing erosion, supporting biodiversity, and serving as nurseries for fish and other marine life. Tree planting initiatives help restore and maintain mangrove ecosystems, ensuring their benefits for both the environment and the community's well-being.
This activity was spearheaded by the Chairman of the Committee on Environmental Protection, Hon. Jaime C. Roa, supported by the head of the Sangguniang Bayan, our Municipal Vice Mayor, Hon. Allan B. Roa together with the members of the sangguniang bayan present herewith.
This activity would not be possible without the support of our Municipal Mayor, Hon. Dennis L. Roa, whose flagship program includes the protection of our environment.
