🍎🌿 KAANGAYAN VRIENDENKRING vzw | SEPTEMBER UPDATE 🌿🍎

As summer fades and September arrives, it’s apple harvesting season in St.-Martens-Latem! 🍏🍎

Our Kaangayan Vriendenkring vzw family had the wonderful opportunity to take part in the fruit picking activity organized by Grondzaken – St.-Martens-Latem. ❤️

Harvesting these beautiful apples is not only about enjoying fresh fruit—it’s also about making the most of nature’s blessings and exploring creative ways to preserve the harvest. 🌱✨

🍎 Possible products from our apple harvest:
• Apple Marmalade 🍯
• Fresh Apple Juice 🧃
• Apple Vinegar 🍎
• Apple Mousse 🍏
• Apple Cakes 🍰
• Apple Streusel / Crumbles 🥧
• Apple Flan 🍮
• And many more creative apple products! ✨

From fruit picking to preservation, every harvest becomes an opportunity for learning, creativity, sustainability, and community connection. 💚

A beautiful September reminder that when summer fades, nature welcomes us with a new season of abundance. 🍂🍎

Biodiversity loss must stop by 2030 to protect Earth’s life-support systems because diverse species and ecosystems form the intricate foundation sustaining all life on our planet.

Healthy biodiversity regulates climate, purifies air and water, pollinates crops, controls pests, and cycles nutrients essential for food production and human survival.

As species vanish at unprecedented rates due to habitat destruction, pollution, overexploitation, and climate change, these natural processes weaken, risking tipping points that could destabilize planetary systems.

Recent research emphasizes that continuing current trajectories beyond 2030 may trigger irreversible collapses in ecosystem services, amplifying floods, droughts, food shortages, and disease outbreaks while undermining economies dependent on nature.

Halting and reversing this decline demands immediate global action through protected areas covering at least 30% of land and seas, ecosystem restoration, reduced harmful subsidies, and sustainable practices that integrate indigenous knowledge.

Prevention now is far more effective and cost-efficient than future repair attempts.

By prioritizing nature-positive strategies alongside carbon neutrality, humanity can secure resilient life-support systems, ensuring equitable well-being for current and future generations in harmony with the planet.

Urgent collective commitment in the remaining years will determine whether Earth maintains the stability vital for thriving civilizations.

ECOSYSTEM SERVICES EMBEDDED IN EVERYDAY TREES

In Manila, cutting down trees means taking away a system that provides cooling, air cleansing, flood absorption, and habitat services. It also means people lose small comforts of nature (that are even more important in the dense urban habitat of a city).

When you cut down a tree, you lose shade, air, life, safety, and that peace of mind. Most people don’t realize how important trees are until they are cut down.

Trees are not just for beautifying. They support life in the urban environment.

Save the remaining trees.
