Student Reflection

"The earth we abuse and the living things we kill will, in the end, take their revenge; for in exploiting their presence we are diminishing our future."

I was very grateful that I had given an opportunity to extend our service that is related in helping the environment.

Upon seeing the place, at first, I feel disgusted because of the irritating smell, there were dispersed trashes and the heat also add up to the our burden, but it all turned on to be good when we start cleaning the area. 

I feel happy and fulfilled with what we have done in order to at least relieve the condition of the sea coast.

"The environment, after all, is where we all meet, where we all where we all have a mutual interest. It is one thing that all of us share. It is not only a mirror of ourselves, but a focusing lens on what we can become."

It was a great privilege to be a part of Bio-Catalysts group that we all spent even an inch of our lives just to have a coastal clean-up. We are so glad that we did it successfully with all our interest and dedications to visit such places which are less of care.

In totality, we might not have a long time cleaning the area but at least in our dispositions, we create history.

"The activist is not the man who says the sea is dirty.  The activist is the man who cleans up the sea."

Seeing that garbage in the sea shore, it made me think. “How long will the Earth live?”

Being a part of Bio-Catalysts group is a great opportunity for in simple way, I helped the environment. Cleaning that area in Barangay Bula is a great help for the community.  I just realize there that the garbage in the area will not be there if citizens only have discipline and proper education about waste management program.  So, this thought stacked on my mind: “Change always star with ourselves.” So, let us change for the better life.

"Humankind has not woven the web of life.  We are but one thread within it.  Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.  All things are bound together.  All things connect."

The project that we conducted serves as an eye opener to me because aside from the beautiful and maintained beaches and resorts, there were some coastal areas that are left abandonly, that are not taken care of that has lead to its dreadful state.
