DENR hosts waste management lecture

MASSIVE environmental education lectures on the proper management of solid waste were recently conducted by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) to beef up awareness on proper waste disposal.

This started with the Provincial Environment and Natural Resources based in Guiguinto, Bulacan, as it hosted a series of lectures on how to educate the public and raise awareness on the importance of solid waste segregation.

The lecture series was participated by 235 barangay councilors, health workers, garbage collectors and Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program beneficiaries from the towns of Norzagaray, San Miguel, San Ildefonso, Sta. Maria and Baliuag in Bulacan.

An ecological solid waste management action plan was also crafted during the event to monitor the progress of waste management in the said towns.
