An agri-reforestation project of the Philippine Army's Armor Division and the nongovernment organization Tarlac Heritage Foundation (THF) has expanded to corn-growing. Called 'Water is Life', the project which is ongoing at the Armor Division's base in Tarlac province, started as a reforestation campaign but branched out into growing food, too. Vegetables, like water spinach, and crops like corn will be grown on the project site to meet some of the food needs of the division and the government's Kadiwa stores, where basic goods are being sold at lower prices.

Written by: Kenneth M. del Rosario Saving the country's native trees from extinction is a tall order, but one that needs to be taken seriously, with no further delay, and with full commitment, if stakeholders are to succeed.  It becomes an even more urgent situation knowing that about 47 percent of local native tree species are threatened with extinction, mainly due to urbanization, development, and habitat loss due to agriculture. Energy Development Corporation (EDC) knows this all too well, which is why it wastes no time launching extensive environmental programs that include forest restoration, protection of forests within watersheds, and advocacy and mainstreaming of Philippine native trees.
