JUNE IS ENVIRONMENT MONTH

hello, its been a hot month ...wow, the temperature rising daily ...that solar energy should be put to good use!!! well we do, we dont use the dryer anymore in our clothes, even our palay in the the province has easily dried the harvest...so see?, the heat has lots of uses. This is only the time to repair the roof, to be ready for the rain. Notice that there are only two weather phenomenons, WET AND DRY. but the havoc it does is also intense... so lets not take these weather lightly....just be careful.

i just would like to remind everyone, that JUNE IS ENVIRONMENT MONTH,

and June 5, is environment day. those of you who have projects that need to be done particularly on the environment, ecology trips, tree planting, solid waste management seminars, cleaning the classrooms, and information campaign, do so this month, and its also the time to go back to school.

if you like to share some of your time, go to HARIBON FOUNDATION (CUBAO), MAY 29,

they have a seminar on how to help out, you can also visit the DENR (http://www.denr.gov.ph/),

World Wildlife Fund (mindanao avenue), and also Girl Scouts of the Philippines (http://www.gsp.org.ph/), Pasig River Rehabilitation, ABS CBN Foundation, and many, many other groups that are involved in environment. And i met this photographer in Bagiuo during the leadership conference of the GSP, he is an advocacy photographer, he is on facebook. :filipino pilgrim: , lots of photos on his FB... you can even share your own photos on his site...

Another way is to put up your own group and have activities that can tackle simple acts of love for Mother Earth, make this sustainable, and before you know it, you have a huge organization.

This also tests your leadership concerns. And also your creativity!!!

Involvement means commitment. If others can, why not you?

Happy Environment Day!!!!

GIRL SCOUT LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE

i had a nice week in bagiuo this May, with the GSP leaders,,,mind you these are young ladies, who being Girl Scouts attended a five day conference, to know more about a lot of things, instead of vacationing in beaches and flying to HK for shopping!

i was invited to do a game for my advocacy of environment and im sure you are aware that GSP
stands for green earth (nah, the color of their uniforms has been there since time immemorial),
actually the GSP has been in the forefront of various subjects which they have been espousing.
You can learn this by browsing their website.

will have more photos of the activities soon... will have to get more photos from the girls too.
congratulations to all the girls who attended this very valuable training. as they grow up, they will always remember this. i once was a Girl Scout in my elementary years. I enjoyed being with my peers, and my friends. I didnt go to far flung areas, as the current girls do, but we did a lot of singing, and also
we had fun learning things. It made me strong, in character, and in my ideas.

We all should support the Girl Scouts, a worldwide commitment to a better community.

God bless you all
