MENRO-Daanbantayan

HAPPENING NOW :

Mr. Mamerto Q. Rodrigo, Head of MENRO Daanbantayan, is currently participating in the World Environment Day 2026 Celebration with the theme: Panaghiusa Alang sa Katawhan ug Kinaiyahan: Lihok na, Karon na! an activity initiated by the Regional Center of Expertise on Education for Sustainable Development (RCE) at the Cebu Provincial Capitol.

During the event, he presented the Municipality of Daanbantayan’s Solid Waste Management and Waste Diversion initiatives to Governor Pamela Baricuatro, showcasing the municipality’s commitment to environmental sustainability, waste reduction, and community driven conservation efforts.

Together, we continue to build a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable Daanbantayan.

As we continue to experience the effects of El Niño, it is vital for all of us to take proactive steps in protecting our environment, health, and community.

💧 Conserve water at all times use it wisely and avoid unnecessary waste.

🌱 Support tree growing and mangrove planting activities because it strengthen our ecosystems and help restore balance in nature.

🔥 Avoid activities that may trigger fire, especially open burning, which poses serious risks to health and the environment.

📢 Did you know?
Open burning is strictly prohibited under Republic Act No. 8749 (Philippine Clean Air Act), which protects our right to clean air and helps reduce air pollution.

It is also prohibited under Republic Act No. 9003 (Ecological Solid Waste Management Act), as burning solid waste releases toxic fumes that are harmful to human health and the environment.

In addition, Municipal Ordinance No. 18, Series of 2020, Section 61 (Prohibited Acts), Letter G reinforces this prohibition at the local level, ensuring stricter compliance within our municipality.

Let us all work together in promoting environmental responsibility and safeguarding our future. 🌍💚

As youth of the community, we are called to stand for who we are and what we believe in a future rooted in care, responsibility, and love for our environment.

Today, the Sangguniang Kabataan from different barangays across our municipality came together to celebrate Earth Day through meaningful action. From planting mangroves to conducting coastal clean-ups, their efforts reflect a shared commitment to protect and preserve our natural resources.

It’s truly inspiring to witness young people taking the lead, showing that caring for our environment is not just a responsibility, but a passion. Together, let’s continue nurturing nature for the generations to come. 🌱🌊
