The Rainbow Warrior is in Batangas, as part of her "Balangaw: the Climate Justice Tour" in the Philippines.
The ship is in the country to provide a platform for communities who are already dealing with the impacts of the climate crisis, such as indigenous peoples, farmers, fisherfolk, youth, and others. Their call is for fossil fuel companies and governments to stop business-as-usual, since they are failing to respect and protect their rights to life, to health, to their culture and way-of-life, to livelihood and an adequate standard of living, and to a stable climate and healthy environment.
