"For the past 25 years, the Miss Philippines Earth organization had been advocating for our planet. And as I stand here as a delegate, we have been given a platform to raise awareness and fight for the causes that we believe in. But as I stand here, I'd like to give this message of hope that we still have time to preserve and protect our Mother Earth.

Because if we work hand-in-hand, anything impossible can be made possible for our Mother Earth, for our planet."
