In celebration of Earth Day, Manila Ocean Park together with Museo Pambata, and the Cultural Center of the Philippines organized an Earth Day project dubbed as UnEarth. The 3-day project was packed with various activities which include coastal cleanup, creative workshops, lecture-demonstrations, exhibitions and showcases. All the activities were aimed to promote care for the environment and encourage action towards saving the Earth. It also aims to encourage the public by using art to express, inspire and communicate environmental advocacies and actions.
Hands On Schools- Galing Mo Kid students from Nueve de Febrero Elementary School and Plainview Elementary School joined the celebration on the third day. Students learned about the decomposition rate of various trash, and why it is important to practice the 3Rs– Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. After the short talk by Des Llano, the students participated in an art workshop using recycled materials. The students were treated afterwards to a tour inside Ocean Park, and to the newly-opened Zoocology inside the park.
