🌿 CELEBRATING LUNTIANG BUKAS: PHILIPPINE ARBOR DAY 2026 🌿

On June 25, 2026, the Local Government Unit of Kalibo joined hands with DENR-Aklan and our amazing private and academic partners for a massive tree-planting activity in celebration of Philippine Arbor Day! 🇵🇭🌳

Together, we took a stand for environmental sustainability, climate resilience, and the protection of our beautiful local ecosystems.

Here is a quick look at what our green community accomplished:

📍 Location: Bakhawan Nature & Study Eco-Park
🌱 Total Area Planted: 1.0005 hectares
📈 Total Seedlings Planted: 3,000 mangrove propagules
🌿 Species Planted: Bakhaw Babaye, Bakhaw Lalake, and Api-api.

This impactful green movement wouldn't have been possible without the dedication of our 88 eco-warriors who showed up and rolled up their sleeves! 🧑‍🤝‍🧑💚

A massive THANK YOU to our incredible participants:

👥 LGU-KALIBO
Our dedicated teams from MENRO, ASD (Agriculture), MGSO, OMPDC, OHRM, TTMD, WATCHMAN, and RHU/MHO turned out in full force to support the cause.

Kalibo Air Quality Remains Safe on New Year’s Day, KUNAK Monitoring Data Reveal
by: Raymond J. Sucgang

KALIBO, Aklan —
Readings from the KUNAK Air Monitoring Station indicate that air conditions in Kalibo on New Year’s Day stayed within normal and acceptable levels, despite earlier increases in pollution linked to holiday activities.

Data show that particulate matter (PM₁₀ and PM₂.₅), total suspended particulates, sulfur dioxide, ozone, and volatile organic compounds on January 1 were well below the limits set by national air quality standards. Environmental analysts point to the long hours of rainfall on New Year’s Eve as a key factor in the improved air conditions, as rain helps remove pollutants from the atmosphere.

In contrast, the monitoring station recorded temporary surges in particulate matter on December 30, 2025. Elevated levels of PM₁₀, PM₂.₅, and total suspended particulates were observed, which are believed to be associated with fireworks displays and intensified pre–New Year human activities in Kalibo. Such short-lived pollution spikes are commonly documented during festive periods in urban areas.

Separately, an unusual increase in sulfur dioxide concentrations on November 25 was detected. This event is likely connected to emissions from the eruption of Mount Kanlaon, highlighting how volcanic activity can influence air quality even at some distance.

The KUNAK Air Monitoring Station, launched on August 15, 2025, provides minute-by-minute measurements of air pollutants and noise levels. The facility is the result of a collaboration among the Kalibo local government, the Laudato Si Aklan Wing, West Point Technologies, and the Diocese of Kalibo’s Ministry of Ecology, and is expected to play an important role in strengthening environmental monitoring, public awareness, and evidence-based policymaking in Aklan.
