The Dawani Student Core Group, under the Central Bicol State University of Agriculture (CBUA) Bicol Regional GAD Resource Center, officially launched the environmental campaign and initiative titled PETpeeves: Alagad ng Kalikasan on January 28, 2025, at the CBSUA-Pili Mini Pavilion. This event marked the formal introduction of the project, which aims to promote sustainable waste management practices in the university.
The program began with opening remarks delivered by Dr. Glenn E. Redecilla, the GADRC director. Meanwhile, Engr. Dino Jose M. Relativo, Director of the CBSUA Physical Plant Development and Services Office, delivered an insightful message on the importance of sustaining the project and ensuring its long-term value. Hon. Sophia Grace E. Cañal, Secretary of Environmental Science Society, briefly discussed the Importance of Proper Waste Disposal and Management, providing valuable insights on responsible waste practices. Further, the Dawani Student Core Group Convener, John Rey Estiva, discussed the purpose of the initiative and its goals for fostering environmental awareness and related initiatives.
The event was also attended by the governors and officers of different college student councils who will become collaborators for the initiative. Eco-bins were also turned over to each college’s service as the designated bin for plastic bottles. The support of janitorial personnel and Sir Alvir E. Buasa, PPDS Administrative Officer, was also instrumental to the event’s success.
With the collaborative effort of all involved, the project was successfully launched, aiming to make a significant impact on environmental responsibility in this university and the community. Following this, the Stateans are highly encouraged to properly dispose of their non-biodegradable wastes, especially PET plastic bottles, in their designated segregation bins. | 𝘙𝘦𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘈𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘰𝘶 𝘈𝘷𝘪𝘭𝘢; 𝘱𝘩𝘰𝘵𝘰𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘴𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘑𝘰𝘩𝘯 𝘕𝘢𝘱𝘰𝘭𝘦𝘰𝘯 𝘍𝘭𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘢, 𝘑𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘭𝘺𝘯 𝘕𝘰𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘤𝘰, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘑𝘰𝘩𝘯 𝘙𝘦𝘺 𝘌𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘢
