WORLD WETLANDS DAY 2024

On February 2, 2024, the ENCA organization participated in the celebration of World Wetlands Day 2024 at Lalaguna Marshland, headed and facilitated by the DENR-CENRO Calauag.

The activity started with a short orientation program to discuss the background and ways of conducting bird watching. Afterwards, they divided the volunteer students of PNU SL into three groups to reduce the number of students in one place because this activity should be conducted quietly. A short discussion in each group happened to gain some knowledge on how to protect and restore these fragile habitats for future generations. Then, they immediately proceeded to the Environmental Awareness Campaign at the PNU SL campus, where they conducted an exhibit and an environmental awareness campaign.

The selected officers of the ENCA organization, headed by the President, Ms. Angelie C. San Juan, the Vice President, Ms. Trixie C. Mañalac, and the Publicity Committee, Ms. Maria Jenny Rose L. Maravilla, led the participation in this celebration with volunteers Enca members to appreciate the significance of wetlands in Lalaguna Lopez, Quezon. They learned and witnessed the essence of wetlands and the value of raising awareness about the ecological, social, and economic importance of wetlands, which has a huge impact on promoting conservation, mitigating climate change, and supporting the well-being of both ecosystems and human communities.

It was a fabulous experienced that this organization was participating in the celebration. We want to extend our gratitude to Dr. Leah Amor S. Cortez, the Executive Director and Provost, for spearheading this impactful environmental event. And to our beloved adviser, Prof. Cyren C. Oseña, for her unwavering dedication support in attaining an organized collaboration with DENR-CENRO Calauag. A shining spotlight on the importance of wetlands conservation was raised.

Sumibol ang inyong mga adhikain kasabay ng pagyabong ng kani-kaniyang talento at kahusayan sa iba't-ibang larangan.
Nagbunga ang inyong sipag at tiyaga, namulaklak ang inyong pawis at luha.
Sa sangang landas na inyong tatahakin, mga daang inyong lalakbayin, panahon kayo'y pagtitibayin.
Taglay ang sandata ng kinabukasan, kayo ay mga inspirasyon sa kasalukuyan.
Ang inyong naging ambag ay di malilimutan, ipagpapatuloy at tutularan, salamat at kayo'y naging parte nitong munting samahan.
Kami ay nagagalak sa inyong tagumpay, ang ENCApamilya sa inyo ay nagpupugay."

TODAY IS WORLD TURTLE DAY! 🐢

Here are some facts
1. The shell is part of the skeleton.
The shell is the most distinguished part of a turtle and experts say that it is made of 50 bones!

2. It is one of the most illegally traded animals.
Turtles and tortoises are illegally traded for their meat, shell, and skin — this has led to the endangerment of the creatures.

3. There are 300 species of turtles.
Turtles may all look the same to us but there are actually 300 species of them — of these, 129 are endangered.

4. Turtles are cold-blooded animals.
Turtles are cold-blooded animals with a slow metabolism — their long lifespan is often attributed to this.

5. They are one of the oldest creatures to be found.
The first turtles existed 200 million years ago alongside dinosaurs!

World Turtle Day — May 23 This day honors two animals associated with wisdom and perseverance — turtles and tortoises.

Happy Birthday Prof. Cyren Capistrano Osena 🎉

Wishing you the happiest and brightest day ever!
