In the efforts to preserve, conserve and protect Mother Nature, and ultimately the Earth, the school's BSP came up with the idea of conducting a tree planting activity. Tree planting is the most effective and relevant way to do it. With tree planting, even a small effort makes a huge difference in leaving an on-going environmental legacy in life. As a result of participating in this activity, the troop leaders and more importantly the scout members can achieve a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment, knowing that they can made a positive difference. In addition, the activity enables great team interaction among the leaders and members while having fun and giving back to the environment. Moreover, the leaders and the members become more ecologically aware on the things they need to notice the world around. BSP, on its part, shall identify the planting sites within the political jurisdiction of the Local Government Unit (LGU); provide manpower, coordinate with LGUs in the implementation of safety and security measures among the participants during the tree planting activity; mobilize its members; monitor all the areas identified and planted.With the aforementioned statements, the project leader is motivated to conduct a three-hour Going Green Project with a theme "Plant today, Save tomorrow!" among scout leaders and members of the the school. This activity is an environmental education project. By doing this activity the BSP members will discover awareness on the importance of tree planting, and establish a connection to nature and while learning what they can contribute to save the future.

The initial phase will take the form of a ‘pilot project’ working with just one community (San Ignacio) to create a working model to trial and demonstrate the various techniques which are appropriate to this context. If this pilot proves successful, BSP hopes to be able to scale up the project to include other communities, and BSP believes that the existence of a successful model will increase enthusiasm and willingness to participate.The participants are expected to plant at least 2 native trees which will be planted by themselves.

PROJECT PROPOSAL
School Year 2014-2015
I. TITLE: BSP Going Green Project with the theme "Plant today,
Save tomorrow!"II. RATIONALETrees are essential to our world and
offer a wide range of benefits to our environment. The benefits
from these trees spread far beyond villages to our homes in Cities,
School and Communities as well. Trees increase our quality of life
by bringing natural elements and wildlife habitats into urban
settings.
In the efforts to preserve, conserve and protect Mother Nature,
and ultimately the Earth, the school's BSP came up with the idea of
conducting a tree planting activity. Tree planting is the most
effective and relevant way to do it. With tree planting, even a
small effort makes a huge difference in leaving an on-going
environmental legacy in life. As a result of participating in this
activity, the troop leaders and more importantly the scout members
can achieve a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment, knowing
that they can made a positive difference. In addition, the activity
enables great team interaction among the leaders and members while
having fun and giving back to the environment. Moreover, the
leaders and the members become more ecologically aware on the
things they need to notice the world around. BSP, on its part,
shall identify the planting sites within the political jurisdiction
of the Local Government Unit (LGU); provide manpower, coordinate
with LGUs in the implementation of safety and security measures
among the participants during the tree planting activity; mobilize
its members; monitor all the areas identified and planted.
With the aforementioned statements, the project leader is
motivated to conduct a three-hour Going Green Project with a theme
"Plant today, Save tomorrow!" among scout leaders and members of
the the school. This activity is an environmental education
project. By doing this activity the BSP members will discover
awareness on the importance of tree planting, and establish a
connection to nature and while learning what they can contribute to
save the future. Thus, like trees freshly planted, their work will
pay forward the investment for years to come. Furthermore, this
activity raises the value of friendship, unity, and cooperation.
Finally, this three-hour tree planting activity is also our way of
addressing disaster risk reduction and mitigating the effects
climate change.III. OBJECTIVES
