Introduction

Green is the color of life. It symbolizes nature, health, growth, harmony and
freshness. It is the most restful color for the human eye. It is the hue of youth. And every
year, the Youth for Environment in Schools Organization (YES-O) is painting the town
green — a continuing strong interest in protecting and preserving the planet’s
resources. It is manifestation that students in schools have always been mobilized and
maintains a renewed youth participation and action to protect, preserve, conserve and
rehabilitate our environment.

Department of Education (DepEd) Order No. 72, series of 2003, establishes

YES-O as the only co-curricular environmental club or organization in schools. It
consolidates all other environmental and/or ecology clubs or organizations in schools
with main and primary programs or projects for the environment. This effort believes
that starting them young in the ways of environmentalism help secure a clean and
healthy environment for generations to come. YES-O inspires and trains diverse youth
to impact environmental issues through community action projects and campaigns;
skills training in leadership, environmental education, civic engagement, and community
organizing; and knowledge that sustain our communities and future.

The YES-O has the following objectives:

 · Be aware and create awareness in others of the state of the Philippine

environment and ecology, including prevailing issues and concerns relative
thereto;

 · Establish specific and doable programs, projects and activities to address

issues and concerns on the environment and ecology;

 · Network with other government and non-government organizations,

including Youth for Environment in Schools (YES) Organization in other schools
within the division and region, with regard to support and assistance to programs,
projects and activities of the organization;
  · Encourage community participation and initiative in environmental and
ecological movements and actions; and

 · Develop among members and the community proper environmental values,

skills and attitudes

YES-O members realize that deterioration of the natural environment is one of

the principal concerns of young people worldwide as it has direct implications for their
well-being both now and in the future. Abiding with the mandates of organization,
sustainable development has become a key element in the programs and activities of
YES-O throughout the year. While every segment of society is responsible for
maintaining the environmental integrity of the community, these young people have a
special interest in maintaining a healthy environment because they will be the ones to
inherit it.

The club operates on the values of youth empowerment, sustainability, diversity,

justice and healthy environment. However, saving the environment is a team effort.
Everyone must participate and work together in order for it to be successful. Everyone
has the green light to proceed with a task and a green thumb for utmost care of nature.
For after all, green is life.

Accomplishment Report

ACCOMPLISHMENT REPORT
Youth for Environment in Schools Organization (YES-O)
S.Y. 2012- 2013

I. Impact of the Projects

The projects and activities conducted by the YES-O all have the advocacy of
preserving the environment and making the world a better place to live in. These
projects increased the awareness of the students who participated regarding the ways
in which they can help to promote the club’s advocacy. Students improved their learning
in the way that they are more able to segregate non-biodegradable wastes from the
biodegradable ones.

Added to this, the projects of the said club promoted the initiative of the students
in even simple ways like picking up trashes even if not their own. The students also
improved their leadership skills because of the committees they are supposed to be
members of.

In the Project GLOBE, there are some Fourth Year student researchers who
conducted researches about soil and water analysis. Some of these students even
competed in the 2011 Division Science Fair held at Tagaytay City.

These projects and activities were conducted in accordance with the club’s
objectives. The club was successful in following its objectives like being aware and
creating awareness in others of the state of the Philippine environment and ecology,
and establishing specific and doable programs, projects and activities to address issues
and concerns on the environment and ecology.

It also succeeded in encouraging community participation and initiative in

environmental and ecological movements and actions and developing among members
and the community proper environmental values, skills and attitudes.
II. Plan of Action

In order to effectively perform the activities done this year one the next school
year, there should always be recommendations and evaluations. First, there should be
continuous set of meetings per project because the club found it difficult at times to
disseminate information regarding the project to be done. Also, there should also be
proper communication between each member for a better execution of activities.

Different sources of funds are also needed. The main problem of the club in
executing its projects is the lack of resources, whether money or even the tree
seedlings. And so, soliciting is a must. There should also be coordination between the
YES-O and different Local Government Units which are in charge of distributing tree
seedlings to different schools. Asking for donations from different people is also
suggested to provide more funds for more projects to be accomplished. Also, make sure
that the committees per activity would fulfill their tasks towards the activity’s betterment.

All members should also be more encouraged to participate in the club activities.
For the projects to be conducted more properly, the preparations should be done not a
week before the event but one or two months before the day of the project. All officers
should also be familiar with their responsibilities and tasks to provide the students good
leadership. Lastly, provide more opportunities for the students to increase their
awareness regarding environmental protection and preservation like making more eco-
containers and conducting of symposiums.

Mission
Encourage students in becoming environment friendly individuals and contribute in the preservation of mother
Earth through relevant programs.
