Surigao City, December 11, 2023 – A testament to resilience and environmental guardianship unfolds along the Surigao coastline as JCI Surigao Nickel proudly announces its collaboration with the Provincial Risk Reduction and Management Council (PRRC) of Surigao Del Norte for a momentous Mangrove Planting Activity. This significant event is scheduled to take place on December 11, 2023, at the scenic coastline in Barangay Cagniog, Surigao City.
Recognizing the importance of coastal resilience against natural calamities and human-induced risks, this initiative aims to strengthen our shores through the planting of mangroves. Mangroves play a crucial role in protecting coastal communities by stabilizing shorelines, filtering pollutants, and providing habitat for marine life.
"This Mangrove Planting Activity underscores our commitment to environmental stewardship and community resilience," said John Lester Fetalvero , 2024 LO President of JCI Surigao Nickel. "By planting mangroves, we are taking a proactive step towards safeguarding our coastal ecosystems and preparing for future challenges."
Let's join hands as architects of change, nurturing a stronger, greener Surigao City where our coastal shores thrive as a sanctuary of strength and environmental stewardship.
