Local groups, including OFWs, students and teachers, conducted a barefoot walk to symbolize their commitment to protecting La Union, joining their voices to the growing number of communities around the world calling to #breakfree from fossil fuels. The groups are opposing a proposal to put up a 670-megawatt coal-fired power plant in the town of Luna. The proposal threatens not only the environmental stability of this picturesque province but also the health and livelihoods of the communities that rely on a burgeoning tourism industry.
