Actor Leonardo DiCaprio appeals to President Marcos Jr. to protect the Masungi Georeserve in the Philippines from mining, logging, and other illegal activities.
Hollywood actor Leonardo DiCaprio is calling for the protection of the Masungi Georeserve in the Philippines, urging President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to intervene against potential mining, logging and other illegal activities. The Masungi Georeserve has been transformed from an illegally deforested area in the late 1990s to a thriving ecosystem through community-driven conservation initiatives. DiCaprio's Instagram post highlights concerns that the cancellation of its protective agreement by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources could put years of conservation work at risk.
