“The Sto. Niño Parish is advocating for the rights of the environment inspired by the encyclical of Pope Francis‘Care for our Common Home.’ We are appealing to reconsider the decision in giving permit to cut trees for road widening in some barangays of Poro, Camotes Islands, Cebu,” part of the petition read.

Anjo Gonzalodo, the project contractor, confirmed that his company has yet to apply for a tree-cutting permit from DENR and has only marked the trees with red paint to identify them and check if these were within the provincial road’s right-of-way. Garcia, for her part, explained that it was her duty to implement the project, saying that it had already faced multiple delays due to the inability of the previous contractor to meet the project deadlines.
