10:34?AM Geraldino Geraldino Japay Roderick Jr. The future of our nation lies in our hands, It is up to us the younger generation to take charge of not just the future of our country but also of our environment. We must act as one and do something to prevent further damage to our surroundings and the ecosystem. So many organizations actively work with the same purpose and goal in mind, taking care of our environment. The Pag-asa Youth Association of the Philippines is one of the many organizations that encourage the youth to participate in keeping our environment safe and clean. They foster unity and encouragement for those who demonstrate willingness and capacity to address environmental and climatic changes. It is through everyone’s cooperation and the guidance of PYAP that many innovative ideas and various approaches have been made in order to make up plans and solutions to help our environment. Although there are many setbacks and challenges, the full support of the PYAP and the cooperation of all the youth members make the task possible. Indeed to take charge and lead such a task in keeping our environment protected would be no easy task. But the advocacies and support the organization has, is plenty enough to make up for what is lacking. Furthermore, the cooperation of the youth in helping our environment means a lot to everyone. The unity, leadership, ideas, and creativity each individual possesses greatly make a significant impact, not just on the environment but also on everybody. The PYAP Organization highly supports the youth to give voice to what ideas they may have and to help them bring out the skills and talents they did not know they had for the betterment of all. In conclusion, protecting our environment may seem impossible to achieve at first, but what I have learned as a member of the Pag-asa Youth Association, is that through cooperation, unity, and leadership, we can break those walls of impossibility and pave the way for change not just in oneself but also for everyone living on this world.
