Tree Planting to beautify and prevent erosion

Planting trees and cleaning the shores are some of the activities we can do, I tell you, its fun and really fulfilling.... a healthy body as a result of this work is a bonus!

We simply borrowed this place from our children... it is our responsibility to keep it as beautiful if not more beautiful

Green Wave

ICT Rise-Up Club of the Olongapo City National High School joined the "world green wave campaign" by cleaning the area and watering plans inside the school campus followed by a tree planting activity at the Olongapo lighthouse (parola) area in Barangay Kalaklan, this city.

The Green Wave is a multi-year global campaign that enables children and youth to make a difference – one school, one tree, one step at a time. The Green Wave brings together children and youth from around the world to raise awareness about biodiversity, and the need to reduce its loss. The Green Wave contributes to the Plant for the Planet Billion Tree Campaign.

YNEA Symposium on Climate Change and Global Warming

With the theme “Youth Acting Together to SAVE the Environment,” Olongapo’s Sangguniang Kabataan Federation and the Boy Scouts of the Philippines-Olongapo will jointly launch the re-organization of the Youth Network of Environmental Advocates (YNEA) in the city in a symposium set on Sunday, August 8, 2010 at Saint Joseph School’s Social Hall.

YNEA is an emerging youth organization basically focused on promoting environmental consciousness and youth involvement in mitigating the ill effects of climate change and global warming in support of the government’s environmental programs.

The objective is to organize one YNEA chapter in every Barangay, in every school and every College campus in Olongapo and the Subic Bay Freeport (SBF).

With the City’s advocacy to combat climate change and global warming, Mayor James “Bong” Gordon Jr. is encouraging the youth of the city’s 17 barangays to participate in this environmental endeavor.

YNEA aims to build a network of responsible young leaders who will VOICE-OUT the concerns of the YOUTH in general. The main objective is to educate the youth about their responsibility to protect the environment, build a strong foundation of young concerned citizens and eventually inspire and push the older populace to act on important environmental concerns

SALAMISIM

Footnote of a Time Beyond

Time continues to outgrow itself in a complete chain of today and yesterday. All that we earn now shall soon belong to a grave of the past marked by the crucial instances of man's promised frontier. The effort to haggle success with failure becomes an ephemeral moment of regret. And yet there still lies the satisfaction of one's own vision of the future, an illusion multiplied by bliss and divided by sorrow ... explanation of Salamisim (Photo above was taken summer of 78.. back cover of SJS'78 yearbook)
