Saving the Planet by Hukbo Para sa Kalikasan ng Luzon

A group of people decided to start an organization. They want to correctly and effectively contribute to saving the planet, specifically in Laguna first where the members resided. Then later on expanded to the whole of Luzon.

The organization is still in the process of registration as a non-government organization. Its mission aims to protect and restore wildlife biodiversity through volunteer work. They also cater to forest restoration and rehabilitation of the local environment, one municipality at a time.

They envision a revival of Luzon’s vast forests. And, the continuous expansion of woodlands to be considered nature parks to counter the effects of climate change due to deforestation. Also, making promotion and planting different species of Philippine native trees.

HPKL Raise Awareness

Hukbo Para sa Kalikasan ng Luzon’s main goal is to educate people and other eco-organizations about the importance of native trees. Also, they want to emphasize awareness of proper tree planting and the plants that do more bad than good.

Native trees are the best ecosystem supporters because they have long-standing symbiotic relationships that cannot be matched by foreign trees. Native trees more effectively sequester carbon and water, maintaining the balance of components in the atmosphere and on the ground, which helps maintain a favorable environment.

The use of social media as an opportunity to reach more audiences is a great help. HPKL conduct virtual and physical seminars in Luzon.

“The best way to encourage and educate people is to have them involved, which is why the organization also started the ‘adopt a native tree program.'”

The program is to let people have the opportunity to help even when they are at home. For this, the organization encourages you to adopt a native tree. You may also buy their merchandise and eco-products, and support their Facebook page.

Another thing is you can be part of the organization to physically contribute to saving the planet. Just send them a message on their Facebook page.

“Utilizing native trees in our green activities can be one of our best tools to efficiently meet our goal in saving the Earth from inevitable destruction. The dying of our only home means the vanishing of humanity and the life that we all know today.”
