Villar urges youth to be 'guardians' of environment

Sen. Cynthia Villar has called on the youth to continue being "active protectors"

of the environment especially our very own Las Piñas - Parañaque Wetland Park which is a 'protected area.'

"You will inherit this ecological treasure. Please educate yourselves about its unique biodiversity that you can proudly claim as your own," said the chairperson of the Senate committee on environment and natural resources.

She also told them to use the social media to raise awareness and inspire people around you to act for the good of our environment.

Recognizing that the Las Piñas youth are engaged in different activities and interests like sports and various forms of art, Villar, however, cited them for their common passion of protecting the environment.

The senator led a nature trip at LPPWP with youth from Brgy. Pamplona coming from Christ the King Church Youth group, Villar Cup players, Arts and Dance group, and private individuals from different organizations.

Aside from the nature appreciation activities, the Las Piñas youth also joined the coastal clean-up of this critical habitat declared a wetland of international importance under the Ramsar Convention of UNESCO.

"I salute you for giving time to protect the environment and preserve and conserve our natural resources. I hope it will become your habit to go here," she said.

"I also urged the Christ the King Church Youth Group to continue their active participation in the Church, and the young athletes who join the Villar Cup to enhance their capabilities in sports and for our artists and dancers to continue enriching their talents," she added.

These activities, Villar said, are not only good for the environment, but it will also strengthen your camaraderie.

Villar assured she her children- Senator Mark Villar at Congresswoman Camille Villar will help and support them in their environmental activities.
