The court has issued a permanent injunction to prevent the cutting of the trees at Luneta Hill. We have secured the legal protection necessary to ensure these trees remain undisturbed. My team is now working with environmental agencies to oversee the long-term preservation of the site.

Petition for Pres. Benigno Aquino 111 to Spare the Trees at Baguio City's Luneta Hill
Final supporters
Mr. President, we, the undersigned, are appealing to your known sense of environmental justice, to please prevent this from happening. It is only you now who can stop the impending death of these priceless trees.
Trees give oxygen. Without oxygen, people die. Trees absorb dangerous greenhouse gasses that kill. Trees are symbolic to life, to Christmas, to sharing of love, to the children—the hope of tomorrow. Trees are symbolic to God’s coming on Earth.
Signed,
Michael A. Bengwayan, Ph. D.

Please save our trees. Baguio is already getting too hot and crowded. We need to preserve what is left of our nature.
