Parts of a
Whole
Parts - as subdivisions into which
something is or is regarded as divided
and which together constitute the
whole
Whole - is simply defined as the
completeness of the parts or
components.
 Factors that we have to consider as
part of the whole society
1. Primary Identity or Individuation
- it is defined as the concept of
personal identity. These are the norms
that an individual learns through the
society.
Examples:

a. Values- We often see the tagline “Honesty is the best policy” in

every classroom, honesty is an example of values we learned from
our family.
b. Attitudes- “Takbo! May aso!”, your action when you are scared
of something is an example of attitude. It can be good or bad
action or behavior.
c. Beliefs- “Wow ang taba ng bata, napakalusog siguro nya.” It is an
opinion that we believe to be real and true.
2. Secondary Identity
- it is also known as social identity. As a
child gets socialized with the society he
participates in the construction of his
secondary identity. This includes the roles
and statuses that the individual has to
perform as part of his society
Examples:
a. Occupation often corresponds with income and educational
attainment, which combined determine a person's social class.
However, occupations with high occupational prestige can
increase.b. Educational background includes your high school and in
college
c. Economic status can be considered by your occupation and
income.
d. Gender refers to the socially constructed roles, behaviors,
activities and attributes that a given society considers appropriate
for men and women. Unlike sex which refers to the biological
characteristics of humans such as male or female (World Health
Organization 2013)
Status - refers to an individual’s position
in society which carries with it a set
of defined rights and obligations.

Roles refer to the sets of expectation

which occupy a particular status
 Six (6) principles of gestalt laws
applied to global networks that we
have to consider as part of the
society
Figure refers to the people in a nation
which may vary in terms of color, size
etc.
Similarity states the things which share
characteristics such as shape, size,
color, texture, and good composition
c. Proximity - states that “objects or shapes that are
close to one another appear to form groups”. Even if the
shapes, sizes, and objects are radically different, they
will appear as a group if they are close together. (Refers to
close neighboring countries which possess same cultural background etc.)

d. Closure - involves the provision of missing details to

be a part of potential pattern or once closure is
achieved, the elimination of details unnecessary to
establish a pattern match. Examples are governance, laws, and
others.
e. Continuity states that things tend to continue shapes
beyond their ending points (interconnections to cross
countries essence of globalization or evolution of
generation).
f. Symmetry or Order connotes stability and peace and
order, like sets of instruction or reference.

your answers on a separate sheet of paper.
 Understanding the
Consequences of
Personal and Local Action
to Global and Planetary
Climate Change
 Planetary networks
• Refer to the interconnections and
interrelations among the various elements in
the natural environment enveloping and
affecting Earth as well as beyond Earth’s
surface. It includes the rain, the wind, the sun’s rays, gasses
and other climate-related elements.
 Global warming
• is a phenomenon which refers to the rising of
global average temperature on Earth’s
surface due to the thinning of the ozone layer
in Earth’s atmosphere.
• Global warming causes changes in the
climate patterns and weather cycles of the
Earth.
 Climate change
• refers to the major changes in the climate that
last for long periods of time.
• Climate refers to the prevailing set of atmospheric
conditions such as temperature and humidity of a place
within a span of time. Weather is the atmospheric
condition involving hot or cold, rainy or dry, cloudy or
clear sky andstormy or calm in a short period of time
(Arzadon et.al 2015)
 The Effects of
Consumption and
Production Patterns
on Climate Change
 Production
Refers to how people generate and manufacture
the products they need to use, sell, or consume.
Almost everything comes from natural resources
which are depleted every time they are used.
China - has large coal mine
US -
 Production
If production pattern is characterized by heavy dependence on coal,
the problem of climate change will be more aggravated.
China - has large coal mine
US - Dependence on petroleum in the manufacture and
production of goods. = produced 23 percent of global carbon emission,
eastern European countries, including Russia, produce 14 percent of carbon
emission
 Consumption
- refers to the use of economic or consumer goods and
resources.
- Consumption patterns can be categorized as individual,
family, company and government consumption.
- It is the main reason why we need to use our resources.
- Ecosystem has the ability to regenerate, sustain and adjust
what is lost,but with the excessive use of land resources,
ecosystem will be destroyed.
In economics, the more consumption, the
more demand, the more demand the more
production, the more production the more
extraction to natural resources, the more
extraction the faster for the resources to
destroy. The resources in our environment
are limited but the need for production and
consumption is unlimited.
Some initiatives by the government that helps protect
the environment are the following:

1. The Kyoto protocol, which was enforced in 2005,

specifies targets and timeframes for reduction of
Greenhouse gasses emission of the industrialized
countries. For example, United States produces 23
percent of the global carbon emission, from 2000 to
2012 its target reduction is seven percent.
Some initiatives by the government that helps protect
the environment are the following:

2. The emission certificates guarantee a product’s

resource efficiency which can help in increasing sales,
decreasing costs and boosting brand loyalty. The
certificate enables the manufacturer to gain
international recognitionfor the products.
3. Carbon offsetting is the reduction of carbon footprint
by using other options such as wind or solar energy
Simple things you can do to help fight climate
change:
1. Save energy - Saving energy not only saves you money but
helps you cut carbon emissions too. For example, refrain
from using your cellphone while charging.

2. Improve your diet - When buying fruits and vegetables, try

to buy organic. Organic foods are healthier because they
contain fewer harmful substances, but growing them also
protects the environment and the climate.
Simple things you can do to help fight climate
change:
3. Saving water at home - Clean water that is pumped
to most homes has been treated which uses lots of
energy.

4. Recycling - It can really help stop climate change

because re-using materials usually uses less energy
Simple things you can do to help fight climate
change:
5. Compost food scraps - If leftovers, peels, cores and
cuttings were composted, they would reduce
emissions and help protect healthy soil.

6. Plant trees - Trees help suck carbon out of the air

and stabilize the climate.
Simple things you can do to help fight climate
change:
7. Avoid plastic - wherever you canAlmost every
plastic is produced from fossil fuels and in every single
phase of its life cycle, plastic emits greenhouse gases.

8. Get on your bike - Bicycle is still the number one

form of sustainable transportation.
 Simple things you can do to help fight climate
change:
9. Be informed and support - Support organizations that
hold companies to account for the environmental practices.

10. Sharing is caring! - If we own less and use more things

collectively, we need to produce fewer things and that saves
on resources. Sharing cars, exchanging clothes, lending and
borrowing tools are multiple different possibilities for
collective consumption.
