dc.description | The Senate’s approval on third and final reading, of Senate Bill No. 1536, seeking to strengthen the protection of the Las Piñas-Parañaque Wetland Park (LPPWP), has brought attention to the critical role wetlands play in the global village. Wetlands sustain biodiversity, mitigate climate change, and support livelihoods. Despite covering only six percent of Earth’s surface, wetlands harbor 40 percent of all plant and animal species and provide essential services, such as flood control, water purification, and food security for over a billion people. | en |
