Sustainable future through tree planting

Honda Foundation Inc. (HFI), composed of the Honda Group of Companies (Honda Cars Philippines Inc., Honda Philippines Inc., Honda Parts Manufacturing Corporation and Honda Trading Philippines) recently conducted its tree planting activity with 5,000 tree saplings in Real, Quezon.

Done in partnership with Haribon’s Forest For Life Movement, Honda aims to restore damaged rainforests through planting various native tree species, such as: Narra, Apitong and Lauan.

“For 10 years now, we have been doing tree planting with Haribon and our commitment to leave blue skies for our children goes stronger.” HFI adviser Hirotake Shimosaka said.

Since 2010, around 50,000 trees have already been planted across 36 hectares of damaged forests in the provinces of Laguna, Quezon and Rizal.

In line with Honda’s 2030 vision of providing a sustainable society for the next generation, the project offers options for sustainable livelihood to nearby communities, while recovering biodiversity, clean air and water, resilience to climate change and natural hazards.
