Senator Loren Legarda is urging Filipinos to give a gift to Mother Earth this yuletide season by having an environment-friendly Christmas.
Legarda made the statement in support of EcoWaste Coalition’s “Climate-OK Christmas Guide” that will help eliminate unnecessary waste when celebrating the holiday season.
“Enjoying Christmas and New Year should not be done at the expense of our environment. It would be wise to consider the suggestion of the EcoWaste Coalition to have a green Christmas by using recycled materials for decorations, choosing energy-efficient Christmas lights and electric decors, preparing just enough amount of food during parties to avoid leftovers, choosing reusable utensils, and giving gifts that can go without need for wrappers,” she said.
