After the successful tree planting activity held last February at the Busol Watershed, SM City Baguio revisited its adopted area and planted 7,000 pine tree seedlings in cooperation with the Police Regional Office-Cordillera (PRO COR). A total of 9,557 seedlings have already been planted by SM City Baguio as an initial step in fulfilling its commitment to plant 50,000 trees around Baguio City, underscoring the company’s commitment to corporate social responsibility. Earlier in January, 400 seedlings were planted within the SM City Baguio compound, while 2,000 were planted in the Busol Watershed by the SM City Baguio admin employees and affiliates in February. Both activities were in support of the government’s National Greening Program. Some 157 seedlings were planted in Forbes Park with an additional 7,000 at the Busol Watershed last June 7. Monitoring and maintenance of the seedlings in the next three years will be conducted by DEYAN Construction, which was hired by SM City Baguio to ensure a high survival rate for the seedlings at the adopted site in Busol. The 2,000 seedlings that were planted in February at the watershed registered a 100 percent survival rate. SM City Baguio is constantly coordinating with the DENR and other government agencies to help determine and coordinate other possible areas for future tree planting sites.
