Abstract

On March 11, 2025, the Diocese of Kalibo in collaboration with several local institutions successfully held an environmental awareness and tree planting event in several locations: Pudiot (Tangalan, Aklan), Napti in Batan (Aklan), and Mambuquiao in Batan (Aklan), Philippines. The event, inspired by Pope Francis’ encyclical Laudato Si’, brought together over 55 participants from various sectors, including communities, academic institutions, and environmental organizations. The main objective was to raise awareness about sustainability, climate change, and the importance of planting trees for ecological restoration. The program included informative sessions, reflections on Pope Francis’ call for ecological transformation, and direct action through tree planting activities in several locations: Pudiot (Tangalan), Napti in Batan (Aklan), and Mambuquiao in Batan (Aklan). This article analyzes the significance of the event, assesses the role of collaboration in achieving environmental goals, and explores the broader implications of the initiative in fostering ecological responsibility. The findings highlight the importance of integrating faith, science, and community engagement to address the challenges of climate change and promote sustainable environmental practices.
