By Zoila Palma Gonzalez: Orlando Habet, the Minister of Sustainable Development, has highlighted the urgent need for collaboration between Government ministries to address the issue of forest fires.

Habet emphasized the importance of coordinating efforts between the Forest Department and the Agriculture Department to ensure responsible land use practices.

Habet stressed the necessity of a joint meeting between the two ministries to streamline the permit process and establish stricter conditions for land clearance activities.

He expressed concern over instances where permits had been issued, only to witness irresponsible behavior leading to potentially hazardous fires.

Recently, volunteers had been battling a fire that was burning for 3 days in Santa Familia Village.

Furthermore, Habet underscored the importance of instilling environmental consciousness from a young age, advocating for incorporating sustainable practices even in schools.
