dc.description | Authorities have launched an emergency cleanup operation after clumps of tar balls — hardened oil residues — were discovered along a 350-meter stretch of Boracay Island’s shoreline, raising alarm over potential threats to the island’s environment and tourism industry. The Philippine Coast Guard Sub-Station Boracay confirmed the discovery on April 26 and swiftly mobilized a coastal cleanup with support from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), local government unit of Malay, Aklan which has jurisdiction over the island, and other agencies. | en |
