“It’s high time to rethink the way we manage our communities, transport system, and natural resources, like forests and water.”
Senator Pia Cayetano issued the statement as she sought congressional passage of her four interrelated measures seeking to better align the government’s plans and policies with the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations .
“At the heart of these four measures is the concept of intergenerational fairness. This concept of justice among generations in our ways of living, and in the use and conservation of our resources will allow both present and future generations to meet their own needs,” the senator explained. Meanwhile, the Sustainable Transportation Act pushes for a national policy shift towards promoting sustainable modes of transport, and ensuring efficient public transportation as the primary option for mobility for the general public.
The Sustainable Forest Management Act mandates the development of an effective and sustainable national forest management strategy, based on the delineation and allocation of forestland uses.
