The Youth for Environment in Schools Organization (YES-O) Sapang Maragul IS, is a co-curricular organization established by the Department of Education in the Philippines to promote environmental awareness, education, and action among students. It serves as a platform for the youth to take an active role in addressing environmental issues and promoting sustainable practices within their schools and communities. Through various programs and activities such as tree planting, clean-up drives, waste segregation, and environmental seminars, YES-O encourages students to develop a sense of responsibility and leadership in protecting the environment. The organization also supports national initiatives like the National Greening Program and integrates disaster risk reduction and climate change education into its activities. By involving students in meaningful environmental projects, YES-O helps cultivate a generation that is environmentally conscious, proactive, and committed to building a more sustainable future.
