Tree Planting Activities play a crucial role in environmental conservation, fostering community involvement, and promoting sustainability. These initiatives contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly: SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities – Green spaces improve air quality, enhance urban resilience, and create healthier living environments. SDG 13: Climate Action – Trees absorb carbon dioxide, helping to mitigate climate change. SDG 15: Life on Land – Reforestation supports biodiversity, restores ecosystems, and prevents soil erosion.
By engaging students, faculty, and local organizations, tree-planting programs encourage environmental stewardship and long-term sustainability, ensuring a greener, healthier future for generations to come.
In celebration of Arbor Day on June 25, 2025, the Local Government Unit of Bacoor City, through its City Environment Service Department, in partnership with the Community Extension Services Office of St. Dominic College of Asia, spearheaded the coastal tree-planting initiative titled "Berdeng Baybayin: Magtanim ng Bakawan, Proteksyon para sa Kinabukasan."
