Geog Ride

Geog Ride is a semestral educational excursion organized by the Geographic Society of the University of the Philippines (UP GeogSoc).

Geog Ride is the premier semestral Geography excursion, specifically catering to Geog 1 students but also open to all college students in UP Diliman, that has been providing students an opportunity to gauge their understanding of their lessons in Geography, test the skills they have learned during class discussions, and apply them in real world scenarios. Geog Ride takes geography out of the class

room and into the real world--where it's supposed to be! It also aims to make them perceptive specifically on the need for proper resource management and the advantages of sustainable tourism. Geog Ride also focuses on the cultural geography of places and on the appreciation of different landmarks and landscapes. Geog Ride destinations in the past include Pangasinan, La Union, Zambales, Bataan, Nueva Ecija, Batangas, Quezon and even Manila.

[GEOG PROVFILES]

From the city of Quezon, the Geog PROVFiles brings you to the Coconut Capital of the Philippines: QUEZON province! 🥥✨️

Quezon is bordered by provinces such as Laguna and Rizal. The elongated coastal land stretches up to Aurora in the north, Camarines Norte in the east, and Batangas in the west. In the east, the Polillo Strait separates the Polillo island. In fact, the total land area makes the province the largest in the region and sixth nationwide. Quezon's 'rugged' landscape is characterized by varying elevations and geomorphologic landforms such as the Sierra Madre Mountain Range, Mount Banahaw, and Agos River. Moreover, its climate varies due to size, ranging from Type II (east), Type III (west), and Type IV (north).

However, Quezon faces environmental pressures linked to its natural resource–based economy and location along the Sierra Madre and Pacific coast. Coastal communities experience tide-induced flooding and sea level rise, threatening settlements and fisheries. In Tayabas Bay, illegal fishing and quarrying damage marine ecosystems. Quarrying in river systems also increases erosion and flood risks. Upland areas along the Sierra Madre face illegal logging, which weakens watersheds and increases landslide and flooding hazards. However, the physical geography of the area and the historical flooding that affected Northeastern Quezon in 2004 had influenced the local government to prioritize ecology in its policies.

Today, a variety of nature-filled spots can be found in the province. In Infanta, the BIPCO Bat Sanctuary Watch Tower can be found at Binonoan. Under the Binonoan Producers' Cooperative, the tourist site promotes ecotourism featuring an immersive view of fruit bats. Furthermore, Infanta features a mangrove park at Alitas and a fishport at Dinahican.

And that's Quezon in a (coconut) shell! 🌴 Stay tuned for more PROVFiles releases! 👀
