"Taiao," meaning environment, refers to the natural world around us—air, water, land, plants, animals, and ecosystems. It encompasses everything that sustains life and maintains balance in the planet’s various systems. Protecting Taiao involves understanding how our actions, like pollution and resource use, impact these natural processes. A healthy environment ensures clean air and water, biodiversity, and resilience against climate change, benefiting both nature and human wellbeing. Respecting Taiao means fostering sustainable practices that preserve the earth’s resources for current and future generations.
