Phoenix continues marine conservation efforts through 2026 International Coastal Cleanup
Phoenix Petroleum, through Phoenix Philippines Foundation, Inc., joined volunteers across the country and around the world in the 2026 International Coastal Cleanup held on September 19, 2026, reinforcing its commitment to protecting the country’s coastlines and marine ecosystems.
Phoenix employees, together with local residents and community volunteers, gathered across 10 coastal sites near the company’s depots and LPG plants, collecting 318 sacks of trash ranging from plastic waste to other debris. The nationwide activity covered key facilities in Batangas, Bacolod, Aklan, Davao, General Santos, Villanueva, Zamboanga, Iligan, and two locations in Cebu.
“This annual cleanup reminds us of our shared responsibility to protect our oceans and the communities that depend on them,” said Phoenix Senior Vice President Atty. Raymond Zorrilla. “By working together to remove waste from our coastlines, we contribute to healthier marine ecosystems and a cleaner future.”
The International Coastal Cleanup, spearheaded globally by the Ocean Conservancy, is recognized as one of the world’s largest volunteer initiatives for ocean health. Through its continued participation in the annual activity, Phoenix reinforces its commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainable operations.
