Instead of the usual tree planting activities in celebration of the Arbor day yesterday, environmentalists and the local government personnel of Baler plant more than 5,000 mangrove propagules to enhance the existing 20-hectare of mangrove area that serve as breeding ground of various shellfish and other marine products along the coastline of Barangay Zabali, In Baler, Aurora. This activity also highlights Environment month this June.
