To spark meaningful dialogue on the pressing fight against climate change, Jewelmer and Tatler gathered a set of inspiring industry leaders in a forum titled “Sustainability and the Pearl”. Headed by Jewelmer CEO Jacques Christophe Branellec with Tatler representatives Irene Martel Francisco and Isabel Francisco, the forum proved profoundly enlightening with like-minded individuals and equally vocal advocates on the subject. The forum participants were Tootsy Angara, Alice Eduardo, Mike Huang, Ana Lorenzana de Ocampo, Vince Perez, Sheila Romero and Emmeline Aglipay Villar.
The guests began with stories of what fuels their passion for the cause; for most of them, it was the sheer desire of ensuring a bright, comfortable future for their children. “I have a seven-year-old, and I would like him to grow up breathing clean air, drinking clean water, and really enjoying nature,” Romero said, echoing the thoughts of everyone present. As chairman of Globalports Terminal, she also extends this concern to the thousands of families affected by their ports in the Visayas and Mindanao regions.
