Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️

An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭

Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Would like to see this model across the whole world! Local people are the backbone of any truly sustainable conservation plan.

Awesome, glad to see some positive news about the environment.

There's a similar project going on right now led by the Philippine Eagle Foundation to reforest native habitat. They partner with indigenous peoples to plant and maintain the trees. You can adopt a single tree for as little as ₱250 (~$4). They even give you a way to track the trees you've donated 🌴🦅
