The Department of Environment and Natural Resources – Pasig River Coordinating and Management Office and the Rotary Club of Manila have joined forces to clean up the Pasig River. As part of Rotary’s supporting the environment initiative—one of Rotary’s seven areas of focus—RCM has donated 395 floating trash barriers that will be used to prevent the trash from flowing into the river.
In addition to helping keep the river clean, these same trash barriers also act as a life-saving tool. Capt. Lomil Prado, Operations Head of PRCMO, reported that on November 21, an unidentified female was saved from drowning because of the trash barriers. He said the Philippine Coast Guard rescued the individual from drowning near the Intramuros-Binondo Bridge in Pasig River.
“This is just the beginning of the PRCMO and Rotary Club of Manila’s fulfillment of our shared commitment as partners in service to bring our vision for the Pasig River System to abundant fruition!”; she added.
