One voice can be ignored, but an entire united town cannot. Whether you live in the highlands, the coastals, or the lowlands, this is OUR town, OUR water, OUR mountains, and OUR future. Join us by signing the petition, sharing your story, and taking a stand for Minalabac!

Sibuyan Island is one of the world's most biologically important islands. Known as the "Galápagos of Asia," it is home to ancient forests, unique wildlife found nowhere else on Earth, and watersheds that sustain thousands of families. Once these ecosystems are damaged, they cannot simply be restored. The decisions made today will shape the future of Sibuyan's people, its biodiversity, and the climate resilience of future generations.  This petition is about more than one mining project. It is about defending the constitutional right to a balanced and healthful ecology, ensuring that communities have a meaningful voice in decisions affecting their future, and choosing sustainable development over irreversible environmental loss. We believe that protecting Sibuyan Island protects our shared natural heritage—and that true progress is measured not only by economic gain, but by our ability to safeguard life, nature, and human dignity for generations to come.  Every signature sends a clear message that Sibuyan Island matters. Whether you live in Romblon, elsewhere in the Philippines, or anywhere in the world, this is an opportunity to stand for biodiversity, climate action, environmental justice, and responsible governance. Together, our voices can encourage decision-makers to prioritize science, public participation, and the long-term well-being of communities over short-term interests. Sibuyan Island is one of the Philippines most important last ecological frontiers. Join us. Sign the petition. Share it with others. Together, we can help ensure that the "Galápagos of Asia" remains a living legacy for present and future generations.

To protect our remaining wetlands in Metro Manila

The decision being made today will affect Bacolod for generations. A waste incineration facility can operate for 25 to 50 years, continuously emitting greenhouse gases that worsen the climate crisis and releasing hazardous pollutants that are linked to cancer and other serious health impacts. Communities living closest to these facilities will bear the greatest risks. Some of these pollutants, such as dioxins, are among the most toxic chemicals known and can persist in the environment for decades. Long after today’s decision-makers are gone, these pollutants can remain in our soil, water, food systems, and communities, affecting future generations of Bacolodnons. This crisis is not caused by a lack of technology—it is the result of decades of failure to fully implement existing solutions. Republic Act 9003 already provides a clear framework for waste reduction, segregation, recycling, and composting. What we need is stronger implementation, not more harmful technologies disguised as solutions. The future of Bacolod should not be decided behind closed doors. We have the right to transparency, meaningful participation, and a waste management system that protects people, public health, and the environment. Join us in our call for better systems and a more robust implementation of our laws. Join us in demanding for Zero Waste solutions—not decades of pollution, secrecy, and irreversible consequences. We deserve to live in a society where decisions are people-centered, sustainable, and just. 

The growing waste crisis affects every Filipino. Plastic pollution clogs waterways, contaminates our environment, and places increasing pressure on communities and local governments struggling to manage waste. Across the country, communities, waste workers, local governments, and environmental advocates have worked for years to promote waste segregation, recycling, composting, and other zero waste solutions. These efforts show that waste can be managed without putting people's health and the environment at risk. House Bill No. 7575 risks taking us in the wrong direction by promoting waste incineration instead of addressing the root causes of the waste problem. Rather than reducing waste and holding companies accountable for the products and packaging they produce, it creates a system that depends on continuously burning waste. The Philippines deserves solutions that prevent waste, reduce pollution, conserve resources, and protect communities. By supporting this petition, you are helping defend the intent of R.A. 9003 and calling for solutions that reduce waste at its source, protect public health, and build a cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable future for all.

We sign this petition because this is not politics — this is survival. Because development should not drown entire provinces. Because our children deserve dry homes, clean water, and a future. Before more towns disappear under water — act now.

The Call for Protection The tragedies in our archipelagic neighbors serve as a dire warning we can no longer ignore. Cebu has shown us the unprecedented tragedy of uncontrolled floods, resulting in widespread loss of lives and properties. This reality could soon become our own. We in Luzon have been constantly shielded by the Sierra Madre Mountain Range—a natural fortress that has served as our primary defense against typhoons and the cascading effects of climate change. But this protection has come at a cost. The shield is weakening. Just as we were protected by Her, now it is our urgent turn to protect the Sierra Madre Mountain Range.

For generations, the rivers and coasts of Bais City and Manjuyod have given life to our people—from fisherfolk who rise before dawn to families who depend on clean water for food and health. These same waters flow into the Tañon Strait Protected Seascape, home to dolphins, coral reefs, and the famous Manjuyod Sandbar that draws visitors and supports local tourism and employment. Today, that lifeline is threatened. The recent wastewater contamination has clouded not only our seas but also our sense of safety and trust. Fisherfolk worry about their catch; workers and small business owners fear for tourism’s future. Communities along the coast ask, "Will visitors still come if our waters are unsafe?" Filing a Writ of Kalikasan is our way to act—responsibly and lawfully—to protect both nature and livelihood. This is not about blame but about truth, accountability, and recovery. By standing together, we defend not just our seas but also the dignity and future of the people who depend on them.

Corruption steals from every Filipino. Every peso lost to corruption could have built a classroom, paid for hospital beds, or provided relief for families in need. Instead, it is pocketed by a few while ordinary citizens continue to shoulder heavy taxes. We are calling for a tax holiday because it is unjust to keep demanding payment from people when the system is failing them. By joining this campaign, you are standing up for fairness, transparency, and accountability. This petition is not just about money — it is about justice and dignity. When we unite, we send a clear message to our leaders: until corruption is seriously addressed, taxpayers will not accept being burdened by a broken system. Together, our voices can push for real change. Sign now and be part of the movement to end corruption and reclaim our future.

Corruption continues to steal billions of pesos from the Filipino people — money that should go to education, healthcare, disaster response, and public infrastructure. Every peso lost to corruption robs citizens of opportunity and dignity. It's time for all of us to take a stand and demand honest, transparent governance. Our future depends on it.  ‎  ‎

The ordinance is our strongest shield in protecting our natural environment, supporting our organic farmers, and securing our future as an organic food Island of the Philippines. 

Dupax del Norte, in the heart of the Caraballo Mountains, is blessed with clean rivers, fertile farms, and lush forests that sustain every barangay in our town.  Mining will strip our mountains bare, poison our water, and destroy our way of life — just like what happened in Kasibu’s Didipio mine.  Once our forests are gone and our rivers run dry, no amount of money can bring them back. We must act now to protect our home, our children’s future, and the lifeblood of Nueva Vizcaya.
