Essence of Christmas

Christmas!!! We are celebrating this day yearly,   in every 25^th of December.

It is a season of gift-giving to one another, family building and many more. This is a special day for us. For we all know that this day was the birth of our saviour   Jesus Christ. . 

Months before Christmas, we can already feel the essence of it. Everyone is very excited to decorate their houses, building or making Christmas tree. Decorating every part of the house of different Christmas decors like Christmas lights, lanterns and more. Many children are   carolling from different houses. They are very happy on doing this because they are receiving money. 

And on the day of December 16, the "Simbang Gabi" will be starting; many of the people will go to church to complete the "Simbang Gabi". Before the day of Christmas, many people are going to the supermarket to buy something for the noche buena.

"CLIMATE CHANGE"

Nowadays, we are causing the mismanagement of our natural resources.

Improper disposal of wastes, deforestation, intensive farming and the destroying of our environment  hence, climate change takes place. But we don't know that we are all given the responsibility to take care of our environment?

People can no longer use river and seas for swimming and washing. Fisherman can no longer catch fish there. Then the river turns dark and fast-smelling and dumping of chemical wastes and garbage into the rivers and seas cause sudden bloom of algae. The trees in the forest are cut down by loggers for profit. They do not properly replant and take care of the baby trees which are supposed to replace the cut trees. As trees are cut, the habitats of animals are destroyed. Many species of plants and animals die.

In order for us to live in a clean and green environment, we should practice proper waste disposal and plant young trees to replace the cutted trees for our comfort and safety during disasters.
