Visayas Coordinator Paula Bernasor wrote about how climate action advocates can take part in upholding environmental democracy.
The election of Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. as president poses real questions to the future of democracy and climate action in the Philippines, one of the world’s most climate-vulnerable nations.
