The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) recently signed a memorandum of agreement with the organization Greening the Islands vowing to continue finding solutions to pollution problems throughout the country, starting with shuttered resort island Boracay.

Together, they plan on coming up with “sustainable solutions” to ensure problems do not continue and accumulate as they did on the closed resort destination.

“These efforts will be applied not only in Boracay but in other parts of the country,” DENR Secretary Roy Cimatu explained.

Greening the Islands is a  global initiative that develops sustainable island projects, with hope of replicating them at other locations./WDJ
