BAGUIO CITY, Benguet, Philippines — Artist and retired government employee Joel Arthur Tibaldo carried his then 2-year-old daughter, Inah Felice, on his shoulders when he joined grade school pupils wandering through an urban forest called Busol back in the 1990s. His older daughter, Tam Jewel, was 4 years old and was walking beside him. Tam, now a 32-year-old protocol officer at the United States Embassy in Manila, said she had always been in awe of the huge pine trees towering above them. Tibaldo brought his children to the first Eco Walk, an environmental experiment that turned city forests into nature 'classrooms' for Baguio's grade school pupils where they learned why Baguio trees need saving.
