Water Desalination

<p>Our green garden located at Taranuman Farm produces fresh herbs and vegetables so guests can enjoy farm to table dishes at Firefish Restaurant.</p>

Our Green Garden

<p>Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the air well as other potentially harmful gasses, they also create an ecosystem to provide habitat and food for birds and other animals. At Discovery Coron, we care for our trees as they are home to many exotic wildlife.</p>

Tree Care

<p>We take an active role in the preservation and cleaning up of the beach as well as the ocean to aid in its conservation. If you wish to join us, the Clean Up schedules are available at the Front Desk.</p>

<h3>Reduction of Single-Use Plastic Consumption</h3>
<p>An additional eight million tonnes of plastic are dumped into the world&rsquo;s oceans every year, where they are responsible for the deaths of marine life. Because most tourism activities take place in coastal regions and beaches, which the Philippines has in abundance, the usage of plastic in the industry can contribute significantly to the ever-growing problem. This was made worse by the increased plastic garbage generated as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic response, which was done in the interest of people&rsquo;s health and safety.</p>
<p>Accordingly, the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) launched a campaign to phase out single-use plastics (SUP) in the tourism sector last 2020, which was adapted and relaunched this year by the <a href="https://pcepsdi.org.ph/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Philippine Center for Environmental Protection and Sustainable Development, Inc. (PCEPSDI)</a> under the Transforming Tourism Value Chains (TVC) Project, and the Philippine Department of Tourism (PDT).</p>
