Saving Mother Earth, Juan Step at a Time, Join Juan Earth at BGC this Sept. 29

Seeing the beauty of our country makes us passionate on doing great things, to take care and save the Mother Earth.

As a way of giving back to our planet, let's join "Juan Earth" on September 29, 2018, at Bonifacio High Street Activity Center, 9th Avenue, Bonifacio Global City (BGC), Taguig City,

Having more than 7,000 islands and 20,000 species of plants and animals, the Philippines is one of the 17 mega-biodiverse countries in the world. Yet with all these rich resources, unfortunately the country’s situation is bleak and saddening. 

More than 50% of old-growth forests in the Philippines are lost. More than 30,000 hectares of mangrove trees are degraded. Families who have been displaced by natural calamities reached more than 900,000. More than 640 species of animals in the country are threatened or endangered. Metro Manila alone produces more than 861,967 tons of trash. And every day, more than 40 incident reports of animal cruelty are reported. 

Through time, the Philippines underwent changes and improvements due to modernization and development. Yes, many of us live a much easier life, but on the other side of the coin, the situation of the environment went downhill. It was as though we took Mother Earth for granted, forgetting to be mindful of its importance and significance. As Filipinos, we have our Pinoy duty to protect the only home we have before it is too late. Because where else can we live if the earth fades away? 

In celebration of Write On Track’s (WOT) 5th Year Anniversary, WOT produced a grassroots effort entitled “Juan Earth” as a way of giving back to our planet.

Happening on September 29, 2018, at Bonifacio High Street Activity Center, 9th Avenue, Bonifacio Global City (BGC), Taguig City, Write On Track partnered with various non-government organizations (NGO) and schools in making that “Juan” step towards taking action to save Mother Earth. 

From 10:30 a.m. to 8 p.m., the activity center in BGC will be buzzing with activities. NGOs will have booths, talks, and workshops regarding their group advocacies.

Take Juan step at a time, here are some simple steps to become a Juan Earth Hero

Tweet

Philippines is considered rich in natural resources for we have fertile arable lands, high diversity of plants and animals, extensive coastlines, and rich mineral deposits. We must help in keeping the environment to become more clean and green, preserves the generation as the inspiration of mother nature. 

It takes only a few simple steps, the involvement and commitment of the people concerned, and a few adjustments in existing working and management systems to make environmental awareness a habit. 

Be part of the solution not part of the pollution. Start with a single step and make a giant leap in saving Mother Earth. 

Here are the simple steps to become a Juan Earth  eco-warrior: 

Carry your own mug, straw, and spoon and fork everywhere 

Did you know that in the Philippines 6,237,653 kg of plastic are being wasted per day? If plastic production, use, and mismanagement continue, there is a huge possibility that there will be more plastics swimming in the ocean than fish by 2050. So, small actions like bringing your own eco bag, mug, cutlery, and straws can make a widespread global advocacy to reduce plastic waste and save our water resources. 

Be eco-friendly beautiful 

When buying your makeup, perfume, lotion, or other beauty essentials, always choose the products which ingredients are organic rather than those loaded with harmful chemicals. With that, you’ll be more confident that the creams you are applying to your skin are as friendly as to the environment. 

Bring out your DIY skills and get crafty 

Old magazines are stripped to make picture frames, tansan or crown cork are crafted into necklaces, juice tetrapacks are recycled into stylish wallets and bags you can sell, and pet bottles are transformed into ecobricks to build chairs, tables, stairs, or even a house. See? You have not just avoided throwing them in the garbage, but you have converted trash into cash. 

Think twice before buying or using animal products 

Those charming animal keychains from souvenir shops or that luxurious fur coat you wear may look fascinating but take note that these animals are being poached for their skin or being used for scientific research. Aside from the destruction of their natural habitat, killing them in large numbers for commercial use makes these species under the threat of extinction. The question is: would you really want to wear that glamorous couture or hang those mummified keychains behind its bloody and gruesome history? Think twice. 

Take Juan step to make an advocacy 

Philippines is not just rich in natural resources but with eco-warriors too. Non-government organizations are doing their Pinoy duties towards environment and animal protection. Some of these NGOs initiate projects such as seedling adoption for reforestation, pawikan and giant clam adoption to retrieve these species, and cats and dogs adoption to save these abused home pets. 

Good news is, volunteering to these environmental efforts is just one step at Juan Earth on September 29, 2018 at Bonifacio High Street Activity Center, 9th Avenue, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig City. Juan Earth is a grassroots effort produced by Write On Track and its dedicated team of community volunteers wanting to educate and empower people to create a healthier and more sustainable world.

It's a habit that is good for the soul, good for the community, good for Mother Nature.
