Hinatuan Mining Corporation-Tagana-an Nickel Project (HMC-TNP) proudly participated in the International Coastal Cleanup (ICC) 2024, aligning with this year's theme, "Clean Seas for Blue Economy."
The event kicked off with a comprehensive Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) program at Magkahuyog Area, Hinatuan Island.
Mr. Lester G. Plaza highlighted the importance of the ICC program and emphasized the crucial role coastal clean-ups play in safeguarding marine ecosystems from pollution.
Ms. Carmena C. Gamboa then delivered a compelling session on proper waste segregation, encouraging participants to adopt sustainable waste management practices.
Following the IEC, HMC-TNP employees and volunteers engaged in a coastal clean-up activity, collecting a remarkable 303 kilograms of waste from the shoreline. This collective effort aimed to remove debris that harms marine life and contributes to ocean pollution.
HMC-TNP extended its heartfelt gratitude to all departments and volunteers who participated in this successful event. Their dedication to preserving our coastal environment and supporting a sustainable blue economy is truly commendable. Together, let's continue to protect our seas for future generations.
