During one of the IATG inspection, the team recovered the shell of a dead freshwater turtle in Matina-Pangi river. Members of the IATG said that the turtle’s death might be caused by the riverโs quality which is highly turbid, dark-colored, and foul-smelling.
Freshwater ecosystems near towns and cities are vulnerable to runoff and pollution. Industrial dumping, particulate pollution from combustion engines, and agricultural fertilizers and pesticides end up in rivers and streams. ๐๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ฎ-๐ฃ๐ฎ๐ป๐ด๐ถ ๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ, ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฒ๐ณ๐ณ๐น๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ผ๐บ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ป๐ป๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฏ๐๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฒ๐ ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ผ๐บ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐ป๐ถ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ๐ณ๐ถ๐น๐น ๐๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ถ๐น๐ถ๐๐ ๐ถ๐ป ๐ก๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป ๐ณ๐ถ๐ป๐ฑ๐ ๐ถ๐๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ผ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐.

Thus, we call on the City Government of Davao and Barangay LGUs surrounding the river to take timely and appropriate action. We believe that all rivers deserve watershed protection.
We also encourage all Dabawenyos to be cognizant of whatโs happening around us and participate in ensuring environmental sustainability in the City.
