And so it was I approached the turtle with caution. But it swam up to me quickly, without hesitation, certain of its own story to tell, of the pains of its existence and its hopes still for its future and ours. It was a day to learn and to connect. It was a day to begin something new. Together. 🇵🇭💪🌳🌏

I encourage all qualified to apply. We need the best Filipino minds and strongest of hearts to join our community of climate champions working towards transformative climate action. 🇵🇭

Final message this Earth Hour: To be the change we want to be, we need to committed not just for 60 minutes but for a lifetime. For the audience: “Narito ang forever.” 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

How can we help in the fight against climate change? Here are three ways to remember as we commemorate Earth Hour.

Underscored the importance of collaboration, planning, financing, and strategic communications to enhance climate change adaptation action and support during the 25th meeting of the Adaptation Committee in Bonn, Germany. Humbled and honoured for the opportunity to join, exchange knowledge and ideas between and among members of the AC, and work to streamline and advance adaptation action at the global level.

Thankful for an incisive & insightful interview. Ma’am @ali_sotto & @PatPDaza, trailblazers in journalism, provided a great framework to understand @CCCPHL and the work that’s being done for a climate smart & resilient 🇵🇭. From El Niño to NCCAP to NAP to UNFCCC and Paris Agreement, to loss and damage and climate justice and equity, the questions were probing as they were learning for any interviewee & listener. Here’s hoping I get to do another round with these amazing leaders in broadcast media.

🕊️ “3,000 strangers sing a beautiful rendition of Matisyahu's “One Day,” a message of peace and coexistence, in three languages. In the video, you see people from all walks of life - Jewish, Muslim, Christian”

𝐅𝐀𝐎-𝐂𝐂𝐂 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐧 𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐠𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 The Climate Change Commission (CCC) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) yesterday vowed to take resolute action, further cementing their cooperation to strengthen the country's food system against the impacts of climate change. The discussion revolved around the Philippines’ agriculture sector, which contributes approximately 8.9% of the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and the challenges it faces due to climate change. Severe typhoons and prolonged droughts have resulted in substantial loss and damages to the agricultural landscape, amounting to PHP 260.45 billion from 2012-2022. These adverse weather events have not only impacted the livelihoods of 4.5 million Filipino farmers and fisherfolks but have also disrupted the country's food supply chain, posing a threat to food security. Considering these challenges, CCC Vice Chairperson and Executive Director Robert E.A. Borje emphasized, “It’s important to recognize the link between food, agriculture, and climate change. Our focus is to ensure that our stakeholders are climate-resilient, and this can be achieved through the delivery of means of implementation, particularly technology development and transfer. This strategic approach is pivotal in building a climate-resilient agriculture sector and safeguarding the livelihoods of millions of Filipinos.” The CCC aligns its efforts with the Philippines' National Climate Change Action Plan (NCCAP), which addresses climate change impacts, including food security. The NCCAP outlines comprehensive strategies to enhance the country's adaptive capacity and resilience, emphasizing the importance of sustainable agriculture and food systems in the face of climate change. The CCC and FAO discussed possible areas for partnerships, such as enhancing the capacities of local government units and improving the country’s climate reports. Joining FAO Philippines Country Representative Dr. Lionel Dabbadie were Ms. Suzette Simondac-Manilay, Environmental Programme Coordination, and Ms. Nikki Antonette De Vera, Programme Coordination Specialist. The FAO is an agency of the United Nations that focuses on eliminating world hunger. The Philippines is one of the founding members of FAO since its establishment in 1945, and a Representation was established in 1978. FAO works closely with the Philippine government in the areas of agriculture, forestry, fisheries, food security, nutrition, and rural development.

Dia de Todos Los Santos as observed in my hometown of Koronadal, South Cotabato. Thankful for the opportunity to be with family, loved ones and friends.

Peaceful & orderly Barangay and SK elections in 4 snapshots. Travelled from Manila to exercise my right to vote & to participate in this hallmark of PH democracy. For someone who grew up during one of the most turbulent times in Mindanao, elections remain a solemn duty. Now, climate change should be an election issue. Mabuhay ang Koronadal, South Cotabato! Mabuhay ang Pilipinas! 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭 @CCCPHL @pnagovph @PIADesk @gmanews @PTVph

Frequent occurrence of extreme weather conditions can lead to crop failures, loss of livestock, and damage to infrastructure and properties. This affects livelihoods of millions of Filipinos, especially those in rural areas. Addressing climate change is crucial for the Philippines’ sustainable economic development. In #SONA2023, President @bongbongmarcos emphasized that dealing with climate change goes hand in hand with building a robust and resilient economy. @CCCPHL #ClimateActionPH #ClimateJusticePH
