182 trees in Baguio are being threatened to be cut down for a parking lot to be made. Just to park cars!!! And as you read this.. around 6am today 10 trees were already down.. that leaves us with 172 more trees to be saved.
But, good news is that.... a TEPO (Temporary Environmental Protection Order) was served. For three days SM cannot touch the trees.
Nobody knows about this.. because Mainstream Media cannot talk about this. Because they cannot talk about their hot shot investors right? It's part of the contract. Very sleazy actually. Any company who threatens the environment can just advertise and pay Mainstream Media and ta-da everything can be done without letting the people now.
Good thing Alternative Media is here and through Social Networks... more people are becoming aware... but we need more!!

Why do we need to value trees?
People who will not sustain trees will soon live in a world that will not sustain people. - Bryce Nelson

I am reminded... Poems are made by fools like me,; But only God can make a tree!
I was born in Baguio City and lived there for ten years and I remember that part of the mystique and allure of the city is generated by it's wooded areas. It's a pity the trees are losing ground...
