Last March 6,
2015, our department staged the first-ever Mr. and Ms. Ecosavers 2015. This was
also the department’s first-ever big income-generating project.
A
brief background about this program: National Ecosavers Program (NEP) is a
joint project by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR),
Department of Education (DepEd), Department of Interior Local Government
(DILG), Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) and Galing Pook Foundation.
This program aims to reinforce the habit of solid waste management and
environmental concern among the youth today.
NEP
was governed by Republic Act No. 9003, Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of
2000, which established a comprehensive, systematic and ecological solid waste
management framework. This act also required the full participation of DepEd in
strengthening the integration of waste segregation and environment concern in
school curricula, both in theory and practice.

We just hope
that aside from the fun and excitement that they had during the pageant, our
students would also realize and appreciate the importance of environmental
conservation and protection for a more sustainable development of our country.
