From the Amazon rainforest to the 'Amazon of the ocean,' highly biodiverse areas across the world are confronting threats from continued fossil fuel operations. Join us in calling for an end to threats from fossil fuels in biodiversity hotspots at #COP30!
Watch the discussion of Atty. Avril De Torres, Deputy Executive Director of CEED, about "Pandang Gitab ng Mindoro: A Scoping Paper on the Island’s Power Landscape" during the REnew Mindoro forum.

This report highlights Mindoro’s immense renewable energy potential as a true source of "light" - much like the spirit of the Pandang Gitab Festival - offering energy that is affordable, reliable, and sustainable. 💡

Despite being blessed with generous sunlight, strong winds, powerful rivers, and fertile lands, the island of Mindoro remains dependent on costly and unreliable fossil-based power.
The REnew Mindoro campaign officially kicked off together with church-based organizations, local government, coastal communities, private sector, and advocates to push for the island’s full transition to renewable energy.
Mindoreños continue to endure costly and unreliable electricity from fossil fuels. With the island's immense renewable energy potential, #REnewMindoro seeks to bring light in ending this energy crisis through the power of renewables.
In this side event, CEED dives into the nexus of fossil fuel pollution, the climate crisis, and ocean-dependent on food and livelihood while celebrating the communities and fisherfolk who uphold the protection of our oceans. 🌊

Ahead of #UNOC3, CEED hosted a critical panel discussion on "The Future of 30x30 Target in the Coral Triangle: Championing Conservation Ambitions Amid Fossil Fuel Expansion." 🐋🪸
In collaboration with CIEL, SkyTruth, and RimbaWatch, we explored urgent strategies to achieve 30x30 marine protection goals in the Coral Triangle, a global marine biodiversity hotspot, even as aggressive fossil fuel expansion threatens its vital ecosystems.
