Lucena City launches river rehab drive, collects 105 sacks of waste

In a commendable initiative, Lucena City kicked off its river rehabilitation efforts by organizing a clean-up drive that saw volunteers gather an estimated 1.4 metric tons of waste from the Iyam River. The 105 sacks of trash collected from the riverbanks underscore the community's commitment to improving environmental conditions during National Disaster Resilience Month. This effort not only helps maintain ecological balance but also sets a precedent for other urban areas grappling with similar environmental challenges, highlighting the power of community-driven sustainability projects.
