Lawyer-environmentalist and Ramon Magsaysay Awardee Antonio Oposa Jr. and me. Photo taken on Earth Day, April 22, 2010, at the School of the SEAs, Sta. Fe, Bantayan. Behind is the "Sailing School of the SEAs," an innovative environmental educational facility that travels to the islands, shows films to the fisherfolk, brings a barangay ordinance template the community can adapt and pass, educates the community on the urgency and benefits of creating marine protected areas in their municipal waters, orients them livelihood with livelihood options and/or whip them with a stick if they don't comply with the law. Fair enough.
