Richard gets real: Action!

After playing a cyborg in the recently-concluded action-packed TV series Codename: Asero on GMA 7, Richard Gutierrez gets in the midst of real action and breathtaking adventure as host of Kapuso network’s latest show on Bilib Ka Ba Nights block titled Full Force Nature, to air Tuesdays starting tomorrow night.

The show needs no fully-choreographed stunts, heartbreaking dialogues and acting skills but a concern for the environment which the 24-year-old actor possesses as one of Greenpeace advocates since two years ago.

“I really got excited when this was offered to me because it will serve as an avenue to create awareness to the people about the problems or issues concerning the environment,” Richard says.

As Greenpeace advocate, what’s number one on his to-do list to help restore nature’s beauty?

“First is to inspire other people to be an advocate, too. I also plan to hold a celebrity tree planting soon in connection with Bench’s green campaign which I spearhead for the apparel brand. I am also proud to say that Bench donated trees for La Mesa dam,” he answers.

”I’d also like to create awareness among the youth so we will go to different schools, as one of my projects next year. Signos, by the way, is now out on DVD. Hopefully, it can be shown to schools because it is very informative,” Richard relates.
