Environmental Care Campaign in the Philippines

Purpose

Organizing and educating the public about the importance of understanding our environment's vulnerability and protecting it. Promoting environmental awareness is an effective way to become an environmentalist and create a better tomorrow for our children.

 

Main Goal

Our main goal is to raise awareness among ordinary people and encourage more ecologically responsible behavior. These changes can include purchasing in an environmentally conscious manner, properly disposing of items, and becoming involved in organized efforts to educate everyone on environmental topics.

 

Specific goals

·         Reduce greenhouse gas emissions and associated environmental impacts.

·         Improve air quality and related health problems

·         Reduce fuel consumption.

·         Develop knowledge and expertise in encouraging a whole community to change their behavior.

·         Support a larger suite of environmental / energy saving activities.

 

Activities to do

·         Expansion of our program: Increase the capacity of direct attention to peasant families from 500 to 1000 or more people.

·         Replication through Partners: Replicate the core, essential elements of our program model with partnerships that can access almost a billion dollars in government, bi-lateral, and multi-lateral funding. Possible partners include government agencies, NGOs, universities, and businesses.

·         Innovation: Test and adopt innovations in our methodology to significantly lower or offset the cost of program delivery. Examples include farmer mentorship programs and earn income ventures.

·         Share the information: There is lots of deceptive or misleading information about climate change out there. That is why we must make the facts known and share them with the people around us. A good place to disclose true information would be on official pages, such as the ONU, on this page there are real facts and figures.

 

Why is it important to solve the problem?

The importance of solving this problem

1.    Ecosystem Importance

Humanity's entire life support system depends on the well-being of all the species living on earth. This is commonly referred to as the biosphere. Biosphere refers to one global ecological system in which all living things are interdependent. Within the overall biosphere or ecosystem, there are smaller ecosystems like the rainforests, oceans, the desert, and the tundra.

 

2.    Living and Non-Living Parts

An ecosystem is composed of living and non-living parts, whether it is terrestrial or aquatic. The non-living parts are the soil, water, air, and nutrients, and living elements are plants, animals, micro-organisms, and humans. A healthy ecosystem has all the chemical elements and nutrients circulating in a cycle while supporting millions of species. The myriad of species all helps in the process of cycling elements when they produce food, eat, go about their lives, and even through their deaths. In this process a variety of goods and services are created that are useful for humans.

 

3.    Quality of Air

Trees produce oxygen when they produce their food through photosynthesis. In addition, during this process trees also use carbon dioxide in the air and reduce its concentrations in the atmosphere. This process regulates and maintains the carbon cycle. This is the reason cutting trees leads to global warming. Trees can also remove pollutants in the air.

Other reasons:

●     There is a lot of misinformation

●     There is a lot of garbage polluting

●     There is little amount of drinking water

●     Temperature Moderation

●     The shade cast by trees and plants also moderates temperatures, making warm places cooler, and providing warmth in cold areas.

●     Prevention of Disasters

●     Natural ecosystems that are undisturbed can moderate severe events and limit their damage. For example, swamps on coasts can slow water flow and hold water from sea storms and prevent flooding and its associated destruction of habitats and human settlements.
