July 17th all sectors had full days in the field. Those of us in CRM could not get over how lucky we are to be in CRM. Our trip was an hour and 45 minute bus ride through some beautiful areas with incredible views of the sea, a volcano in the middle of a lake and jungle. Our first stop was at the Calatagan Mangrove Nursery and the Mangrove Rehabilitation Project in Barangay, Balibago
CRM with the newly planted mangroves |
Volunteers led us(wading) out to the newest planting area and explained some of there management practices.
and a cow, this was the banyo with dipping toilet |
there were privately owned fish ponds next door with lots of goats |
Our next stop was at the Calatagan Peninsula Reserve where over a thousand divers have been installing artificial reefs in a Marine Protected Area (MPA) for about ten years.
