         The initiative to take care of our common home doesn’t only apply to those few who really care about it. The primordial obligation to protect and value our mother Earth applies to all of us since we are the one who used and live here. This planet is our “common home” and for it to really be our home, we, all of us need to value its great importance in our lives. There is still no certain planet in the vast scale universe were we can live, and we can call “HOME.” Because at the end, we have one, unique planet after all. The obligation to protect it doesn’t only apply to the few, to those environmentalist – No! We all have that kind of responsibility since it’s our home.         There had been various problems, global problems in terms of our environment. There are already numerous abuses towards our very own planet. These problems will exemplify it: ·          Global Cli...

          “Little things can make a big difference” Few people believe about this. Most of us focus ourselves in looking for big fish rather than those little ones. Because all of us always want to make things easy. We want instant things. This is the reality that we are facing in modern life. We want everything to be easy. Hence, if we want to look for easy things to make big difference, we don’t need to look for big, great acts. We can be simple and have little things at hand. Sometimes, we do something simple but at the end though we didn’t notice it. Still, it makes a difference. Even in science, great discoveries came from small inventions or discoveries. This is also needed when it comes to our environment. We can do simple things to protect and value our natural resources and energy that came from our planet. Man are very rich if we look at things from birds’ eye view. Because everything in our planet is ours. The only thing that is ...

        Zero waste is one way to eradicate or help the needs of our environment in terms of its problem. This idea or strategy greatly helps our environment especially when it comes to climate change, pollution, etc. Ideally, this type of strategy really is hard as we can think. This needs patience, discipline, care etc. This maybe hard but it’s worth it. There are so many landfills in every place of our planet, in every part of our very own country, and when I say many it is really too “many.” And this makes our very own home ugly. Underneath the makeup that’s been plastered on landfills lay toxins, greenhouse gases, and leachate – all of which present concerning threats to our planet. If we want to leave this planet for our future generations, it’s critical that we have a proactive recycling plan in place – whether that’s in the office, in your community, or in your home.         Believe it or not, our planet is...

Climate change!               Climate change is one of the most prevalent problem that we face today in terms of our environment. This is as well the biggest problem that we are just ignoring. Many says that, “we don’t see and feel it, so why matter.” This mentality can be considered as fatal to earth and as well as to our very own humanity. As you can see this is the very root of this problem, it may be generic in other sense but in terms of this enormous problem that we face, this mentality is a wrong ideology to follow. Environmentalist always says that “Earth (common home) is in deep sickness.” Climate change is some enormous bacteria that greatly affects our home and puts us in this problematic situation.         Global climate change has already had observable effects on the environment. Glaciers have shrunk, ice on rivers and lakes is breaking up earlier, plant and animal ranges have shifted and tr...

        Let us open our eyes to the Environment.. “The environment is where we all meet; where we all have a mutual interest; it is the one thing all of us share.” (Lady Bird Johnson ) There are numerous problems why earth is actually in deep crisis. These problems are not just very simple or not merely alarming because this greatly affects the environment. We cannot doubt the fact; we can believe it or not that the cause of this numerous problems are US! Our ignorance of the fact that the world is alive and it is in deep longing for help continue to be so prevalent in the minds of everyone. Even our simplest way that led us to be irresponsible deeply affects it and in a bigger sense it destroys it. The greed of man in a consistent manner continue to consume and affect the environment in a negative way. Man continue to consume the richness of this planet without reminding each and every one that everything has its own end, everything will be ...

Our very own islands and places or towns are very essential and important to us. Hence this is also important to our world as a whole. Because it is part of it and it affects the world as a whole if we who are inhabitants of this simple island will try to destroy our very own home. That is why we should always think of ways on how we can actually protect and take care of our own home. These are just some projects that I believe is beneficial to the island of Mindoro so that everyone who visit this wonderful island will actually experience ecological conversion.     First it is necessary that we know the problem that we need to address. We can start here, if we know it, I’m sure that we also know how to address it. We also know concrete ways and its intended positive results for our project. These things I believe is very beneficial for us to help protect our home.   A. What are the issues or problems that the project addresses: a.   Lack of  E...
