651 Trees on Naga City Thoroughfare Road Block to Proposed Widening
by MISSION Naga

The Department of Public Works and Highways in Bicol has lined up a road widening project which will pass by the city of Naga encompassing the national road that traverses the barangays of Concepcion Pequeña, Concepcion Grande, Del Rosario and Mabulo, which streets hosts 651 old and big trees now considered the road block to the widening project.

The DPWH-V under Director Danilo Dequito has made it clear the need to turn identified road sections into four lanes, citing the volume of vehicles passing the area daily.

One of the staunch proponent, Arnel Rodriguez, Camarines Sur Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Office chief, said his office will issue the corresponding permit to cut, adding he sees nothing wrong with with the condemnation of the trees to give way to the widening.

Greenpeace flagship Rainbow Warrior passes by the coal ship Sam John Spirit as it exits the Pagbilao coal-fired power plant pier in Quezon Province, 150 kilometers south of Manila. Activists from the Rainbow Warrior May 25,2008 painted the side of the bulk carrier with the words "Quit Coal." The environment group called off its peaceful protest at the coal plant today, assured that it has initiated strong political movement toward a moratorium on expansion of coal power in the Philippines through a resolution in the Senate. Coal-fired power plants are the single biggest source of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, and a major cause of climate change. Greenpeace is calling on the Philippine government to instead tap the massive potential of clean, safe, renewable energy.
