PCG Auxiliary CGADNCR-CL represented by CDR Noemi Alvaran, CDR Arnel Alvaran and Capt Ariel Cayanan made a visit to the Department of Agriculture Systems Wide Climate Change Office (DASWCCO) last February 29, 2016. They were welcomed by DA USEC Segfredo Serrano, PhD., Director Alicia Ilaga and Director Perla Baltazar. This is in line with the upcoming 32nd National Convention theme which is focusing on climate change. PCGA representatives learned about the different undergoing plans and programs of the department related to climate change adaptation and resiliency in agriculture, fisheries and communities. One of the highlights of the discussion is the use of climate change and hazard risk maps which will enable people to adequately address risks involved, in coordination with relevant government agencies. The DA team highly recommended their climate change consultant, Dr. Estaban Gudelano as a resource speaker for the PCGA NACON. DA USEC Serrano has opened the invitation to PCGA to attend climate change meetings in the department whenever there is a schedule.
