"Environment Protection: Change To Help"

 


        Environment is our life, it's situation is also our situation. We have been being ignorant towards our environment, we've been being violent, over using and abusing it for how many thousands of years. Now, we are experiencing Climate Change and we have been just notified recently that we might experience its irreversible effect in the incoming years. We often forget how much humans depend on nature. Even city-dwellers living in modern skyscrapers need air to breathe, water to drink, and food to eat, all of which are provided by nature. True, you can buy bottled water and ready-to-eat meals in supermarkets, but they were not produced there.



        To prevent from worsening the situation of our environment, we need to protect and care for it. We need to follow the 3 "R's", Reduce, Reuse and Recycle to conserve natural resources and landfill space. Volunteer to cleanup drives in your community or school. Educate yourself about the environment, know the things that you should do and not to do in the environment. Plant trees because they provide food and oxygen, they are helpful in saving energy, clean the air, and help combat climate change. Conserve water, the less water you use, the less runoff and wastewater that eventually end up in the ocean. Bike more, drive less. Be responsible and cautious to your doings.

    We can start helping the environment to let it survive by helping first our selves to be responsible and make a change in our ways on using it's properties. With the current situation of our environment, it is very evident that people in this planet do not yet understand the importance of environment in our life. We need to understand and have enough knowledge about the environment so that we will going to be cautious with our actions towards it. Again, helping the environment starts with you. Change to help.

“The Right Type of Resilience”

       We Filipinos are known because of our resiliency. Resilience means the capacity to recover quickly from problems or difficulties. The Philippines is very vulnerable to disasters, it is one of the natural hazard-prone countries in the world. The country is highly prone to natural disasters like earthquakes, tropical cyclones, floods, and volcanic eruptions. Destructions of agricultural products, houses, and government properties always happen after a disaster. But Filipinos will try to overcome this suffering and traumatic disaster experience, showing their resiliency.      In an article written by Pamela, she stated that “Every time, the Filipino nation has to endure, brave the chaos, and stand up the next day. It is from this that we’ve grown to be called a resilient nation. Because we have had to become one.” Being resilient is not a bad thing, but we tend to forget that we’re supposed to be striving for something more. What we need to do af...

“To Learn: Overcome and Try"

  3 rd quarter is coming to end, time really moves so fast. One more quarter to finish and my Grade 10 journey will going to end already. Another learning experiences, challenges and discoveries.   The feeling that I have felt during the 3 rd quarter is just incomparable from the other quarter’s that had passed. I felt so pressured because there are too many task and works to do, there are times that the given task is not what I am good at doing. I’m so down reading the number of task given in every subjects, I’m so pressured, but I pushed myself despite the pressure and stress I am feeling. I conquer my pressure, I tried my best in doing every task given even though some of them are not what I am good at. I can still say that I did well during 3 rd quarter, despite the problems and emotional days that I had experienced.               Life is all about learning, and for you to learn more, you need to over...
