Hello! I'm Airish Joan C. Avecilla, You can call me ✨Ishi✨. I'm a BS Human Eco and a Batch 2020 student.

During my high school years I've been pretty close with the environment because we are located in a secluded area. It helped me distress and keeps me calm during stressful times due to the workload.

My pledge for the environment is to strictly implement proper waste management starting in our household.

Nice to meet you all! I hope we get along!

I am Arienne Therese Guinto, but you can just call me Ayen. I am a Batch 2020 and BS Human Ecology student.

As I have said in our previous meeting, what I love about the environment is the comfort and peace that it brings. Nature never fails to make me feel good and light whenever I get stressed with things such as acads, personal issues, etc. I also love the fact that the environment provides us everything that we need—air, shelter, food, and even the things that give us comfort and make our lives easier.

However, I am very much aware that our environment is deteriorating at an alarming state because of us and our intense greed. Because of that, my pledge for the environment is to make a difference even in simple ways, conservation of energy, 3Rs, etc., and to be an advocate, which is why I decided to join an environmental organization called Youth Advocates for Climate Action Philippines (YACAP) as I believe that it would help me accomplish my pledge.

Nice to meet you all! <33

I am Jamie C. Gecalao, but you can call me "Jam". I am currently taking BS Human Ecology, batch 2020.

That I love the most about the environment is how interconnected species are in it. I love how the complexity of their relationships complimented all of their characteristics. Also, every time I feel like I'm at the closest with nature, it makes me feel relieved because it makes me realize that amidst the rapid urbanization growth happening nowadays, there are still places being sustained and natural resources are still being preserved for the future generations. There's something in environment that challenges me to take part and do actions that can contribute to its betterment through the years since it is related to life, I appreciate every essence of it.

My pledge is to contribute even in simple ways like using alternatives for plastic, as much as possible. Also, as someone in the field of Human Ecology, I believe that as I go on with this course, I will learn different ideologies and theories that can be used for future projects or innovations towards the quest for providing alternatives for plastic like the use of materials made from organic. From this, I can attain disciple and knowledge, which I can also instill to other people who needs to be aware of our current state so that we can improve it and we can sustain it effectively.

Magandang araw! I am Hannah Patricia F. Suarez and you can call me Hannah or HP. Taking up the program BS Human Ecology, Batch 2020. What I love about our environment is its beauty from complexity because from that we see how interconnected these entities to form an entire ecosystem. This integrative trait of our environment also embodies life which us humans continues to exploit for our own desires. I solemnly pledge to continue the small deeds I already doing to be one of the steward of the environment through conserving non-renewable resources and create a ripple of action by influencing the people around me. I also strive to inform myself on science-based investigations along with the human ecological perspective instilled in me to understand the depth of the contemporary environmental challenges in relation with the present stature of our society amid the COVID-19 pandemic. I hope we'll all do better in this semester!

I am Maria Thresha N. Ursolino but I go by my nickname, Tere. I am a BS Development Communication student, Batch 2019.

What I love about our environment is the fact that everything is connected to everything else. This reminds us to value everything in our nature, even the smallest of things. I also love the green scenery, the sunset, and the sound of the sea waves.

I’m Maria Mikaela Martinez, you can call me Mikay. I’m from batch 2020 under BS Human Ecology. What I love about the environment is that even we are taking advantage of our environment and being compromised by us, it still gives us what we need as it is essential for our survival, so we should love it more. There are a lot of things that we can and should do to preserve and protect our environment, so my pledges are educating the people, not just myself, about the need for collective efforts and minimizing our consumption.

My name is Kyle Sherwin C. Tiburcio, you can call me Kyle. I'm a freshman under BS Human Ecology batch 2020.

What I love about the environment is the fact that it offers almost all of our needs, from the air we breathe to the water we drink, without asking something in return. Also the fresh air and green scenery it has makes me feel calm and at peace.

Pledge- I would focus more on personal improvements like eliminating harmful chemicals that I usually use in a daily basis, then I would also educate myself deeper about the issues and concerns our environment is currently facing. After that I am now ready to share everything that I gained to help our environment because it may offer us things that we need, but just like most of us it has its own limitations. So even if our environment is not directly asking something in return, it is our job as humans to take care of it.

I am Cruzette T. Mejia, you can call me “Zette". I am a BS Development Communication Student, Batch 2019.

The thing that I love the most about the environment, aside from the fact that it gives us our necessities in our daily living, is how it affects our well-being. I am amazed at how it gives me peace, hope, and sometimes a rollercoaster of emotions which influences my mood and way of thinking.

My pledge for the environment is to be always conscious of the environmental issues and participate in the ways that I could elevate such problems to render solutions. It’s essential to be aware and responsive as these problems did not spawn suddenly; we just did not notice these things until they became so serious that it affects our daily living.

I'm Basti Fresnoza, a batch 2017 student from CDC.

What fascinates me about the environment is how beings adapt according to their environment. I find it interesting how some the both living and non living things can affect each other.

There's still a lot I don't know so right now I pledge to learn what I can to be able to make a bigger impact in the future.
