A pristine environment should be part of what we leave behind for our subsequent generations. Besides politicians, civil servants in the ministries and departments entrusted to protect the environment must also be held accountable. The Forestry Department and Environment and Water Ministry are supposed to implement policies to protect our natural resources. Older students must be taught that corruption is a primary factor in the degradation of the environment. This will not be the last report on environmental destruction, but we hope there will be more people in power who will champion the cause.
