The Department of Environment and Natural Resources’ (DENR) massive plan to rehabilitate the Manila Bay found thousands of supporters in different places sharing the same goal—to clean up the polluted Manila Bay. In full support of DENR’s Manila Bay Rehabilitation program, officials and employees of MGB IV Calabarzon, together with members of the Eastern Rizal Miners Association (ERMA) and Rizal Quarry Academy Inc. trooped to Angono to put up a trash-trap curtain to address the source of rubbish that contributes to the pollution of Manila Bay. Spearheaded by the Mines and Geosciences Bureau of the Calabarzon Region, the 50-meter trash-trap curtain captures trash before it flows downstream.
