Pagadian City (In addition to bringing joy to listeners and demonstrating a commitment to protecting the environment, the RMN Foundation, through RMN – DXPR Pagadian 603 and IFM 96.7 Pagadian, actively participated in the planting and nurturing of mangroves on July 19, 2023, in Barangay Tawagan Sur.
Mr. Mel Coronel, Station Manager of DXPR 603 and iFM Pagadian, sent the RMN team to Tawagan Sur to cover the event and promote the growth of mangroves in coastal regions.
“We sent the RMN team to fully engage in the activity. We understand that planting mangroves is crucial for safeguarding coastal areas,” stated Coronel.
The Barangay Council of Tawagan Sur, Pagadian City, passed an ordinance mandating the annual planting of mangroves in coastal areas in Tawagan Sur, and it has been actively enforced over the years.
P/B Marianette Marcaban, the barangay chairwoman of Tawagan Sur, emphasized the significance of mangroves in protecting against storms, strong winds, waves, and floods.
Mangroves contribute to the environment by maintaining water quality through the filtration of pollutants and capturing sediments from the land. Mangroves aid in the distribution of nutrients in seagrass habitats. It will also serve as a safeguard for shorelines from storms, preventing wave damage and erosion.
