How Resilient Filipinos Are

The weather in the Philippines is constantly changing and this is because of climate change. Climate change happens when the Earth gets warmer because of things like pollution and deforestation. In the Philippines, we see this change in stronger storms, floods, and higher temperatures.

The main cause of climate change is the burning of fossil fuels, like coal, oil, and gas. When we use these, they release gases into the air that trap heat from the sun, making the Earth hotter. This affects our weather, causing disasters like typhoons and floods.

Even though we face these challenges, Filipinos are known for being strong and able to come up with solutions. People work together to rebuild after disasters. They plant trees to help stop floods, build homes that can resist storms, and always help each other in tough times.

We can also do our part to help stop climate change. By using less plastic, recycling, and saving en
ergy, we can reduce pollution and protect the environment.

Filipinos are tough and resilient, and together, we can face climate change and make our country a better place to live for everyone.

          Every year, we celebrate Environment Month to remind everyone about how important it is to take care of our planet. This month is all about learning how we can help protect nature, reduce pollution, and make the Earth a better place for everyone.

Using a Reusable Water Bottle https://divinetheresetabuada.blogspot.com/?m=1 I use a reusable water bottle instead of buying plastic ones 2.

Stop Violence Against Women

 Violence against women (VAW) is a big problem. Many women suffer from emotional, physical, or sexual abuse. To help protect women, the Philippine government made two important laws: the Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children (VAWC) Act of 2004 (RA 9262) and the Safe Spaces Act (RA 11313). https://stclaresmedicalcenter.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/Violence-Against-Women-2023.jpg The VAWC Act protects women and their children from different kinds of abuse, like hurting them physically, emotionally, or mentally. It helps women get protection, like going to a safe shelter, getting legal help, and making sure abusers are punished. https://www.osce.org/files/imagecache/10_large_gallery/f/images/hires/e/0/504109.jpg?1636728648 The Safe Spaces Act, made in 2019, stops sexual harassment in places like streets, schools, workplaces, and online. It says things like catcalling, stalking, and rude gestures are not allowed. This law helps people report harassment and makes places safer...

Words Describes Me Most

               I’ve been thinking for a while on how do I describe myself. First of all I do not know the right words or terms to describe myself, but there are some words I have in mind to describe myself. I describe myself as a strong, ambitious, and a positive person. I think those words describes me most.           https://png.pngtree.com/png-clipart/20220419/original/pngtree-pastel-strong-woman-clipart-png-image_7538501.png           I do think of myself as strong,   because even when I have some problems or frustrations in life I still choose to fight and face my problems rather than giving up. Ambitious, I have been ambitious since I was young. I have this ambition to be a successful Chemical Engineer. I dream what’s best for me and I know my priorities in life. A positive person, again I have my problems and I still manage to come up with solutions and think posit...
