PERFORMANCE TASK #2

Choose one of the five things you have listed you think is the highest priority and demands immediate action of change.

We listed five things that we think can be vital in order to make our school/community to be better. The first one is the LGBTQ+ wherein we want the people not only inside of our community to have an open mind but to the other places as well. Its goal is to educate the people that gender is not only male and female but there are others as well. Climate change focuses on the awareness of other people to the things that are happening to the planet and how it affects us. The teenage pregnancy to let people know that safer sex should always be in mind if we aren't ready to have a family and improper waste disposal to help the community to always look clean and to let the people inside the community have a safe environment. Meanwhile, the COVID-19 awareness focuses on informing the citizens of the situation and how we can be safe during this virus.

Although all of these issues are important, the awareness of the COVID-19 during these times should be the priority. People must be well-aware of the situation the world is facing today and how everybody can provide help.

Due to the continuous rising of the COVID active cases in the country and the lack of materials to help the citizens of the country such as test kits and medical assistance to the Filipinos and the incompetence of the government, the awareness of the virus is the top priority in order to let people know how can they be a part of the solution in making the country somehow safe from this virus.

All of these issues that were tackled bring great betterment for the community, it all has different things to fulfill but has the same agenda. Focusing on the COVID pandemic right now doesn’t mean that we disregard the others, we should also prioritize the other ones as well but not forget the main point that should be prioritized as of now.

PERFORMANCE TASK #2

What are the things that your group think could be better in your school or community? Live down five things.

LGBTQ (rights and equality)

Climate Change (awareness raising)

Teenage pregnancy (awareness raising)

Improper Waste Disposal (awareness raising)

Covid-19 Crisis Pandemic (awareness raising)

Dull it or Sprinkle it?

What would you if you have a friend that belongs to LGBTQ?

Will you choose to throw them in the shades of life or would you sprinkle them into everyone's lives?

Not all LGBTQ are welcome to live their life freely without judgment, so as a fellow human what would you choose to do. No matter how different people can be from each other the only thing that could matter is how you let them be themselves as they enjoy life as how you do it. Give them happiness through the form of acceptance.

The White House has declared June as LGBT Pride Month. During this month many organizations are focused on raising awareness about issues and will celebrate the progress made towards increasing equal rights for those who identify themselves with the LGBT community. 

For so many people, race, gender, or religion doesn’t allow them to flip their visibility on and off like a light switch. Some identity markers are always visible and invite judgment. So, if I choose not to wear my bracelet because I am worried about what others will think, I cannot confidently call myself an ally in their fight for nondiscrimination. It is much easier to hide, to retreat back into the metaphorical closet. But now more than ever we must be proud and visible. Not only do I need to continue to wear my rainbow, but I need to shout my queerness from the rooftops—let everyone know that I am gay and proud because if those who seek to silence our voices succeed, we cannot continue the progress we have come to take for granted. - Charlie Kolodziej

The Earth has been in existence for billions of years yet a constant problem that has only been discovered in recent decades is how climate change is slowly destroying our planet. One of the main causes of climate change is humanity’s continuous usage of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and gas to generate electricity, run cars and other forms of transport, and power manufacturing and industry, and deforestation – because living trees absorb and store carbon dioxide. We, humans, should combat this problem by raising our voices and because bring awareness to others, as well as consciously making an effort to change our ways to take care of our one and only planet.

“One thing leads to the other. Deforestation leads to climate change, which leads to ecosystem losses, which negatively impacts our livelihoods – it’s a vicious cycle.”

Gisele Bundchen, Supermodel & UN Goodwill Ambassador

“One can see from space how the human race has changed the Earth. Nearly all of the available land has been cleared of forest and is now used for agriculture or urban development. The polar ice caps are shrinking and the desert areas are increasing. At night, the Earth is no longer dark, but large areas are lit up. All of this is evidence that human exploitation of the planet is reaching a critical limit. But human demands and expectations are ever-increasing. We cannot continue to pollute the atmosphere, poison the ocean, and exhaust the land. There isn’t any more available.” – Stephen Hawking, Physicist & Author

The pregnancy of females under the age of twenty is known as teen pregnancy. Teenagers are between the ages of thirteen and twenty, and although they aren't quite teens, they aren't quite adults either, putting them at greater risk during this period of uncertainty. The reason why those women getting pregnant due to the broken family, bad influence of friends, alcohol consumption, or using drugs. According to Thobejane (2015) that the most reason is having a broken family which is not good for their children and can lead them down to the wrong path way.

Raising awareness about teenage pregnancy not only to the girls but also to the boys is crucial. We believe that boys must have equal responsibility towards this issue since they’re the ones who can impregnate young women. Girls always take the blame regarding this issue when in fact, it is a shared responsibility of both parties. All must be aware and educated enough about this particular issue.

"You should have sex when you're ready emotionally and should be aware of all of the consequences that come along with your actions" – Natasha 15

References: Tsoaledi Daniel Thobejane (2015) Factors Contributing to Teenage Pregnancy in South Africa: The Case of Matjitjileng Village, Journal of Sociology and Social Anthropology, 6:2, 273-277, DOI: 10.1080/09766634.2015.11885667

Proper waste disposal is more likely waste segregation, before throwing out all your garbages, you will need to sort out some things that can still be useful and recycled. The benefits of proper waste disposal are first, we can lessen the manufacturing by recycling and reusing some old things, second, it also protects the environment because it gets rid of contamination that can cause a lot of damage. With waste being properly disposed of, our environment is cleaner, meaning there are fewer health risks and hazards around to affect us.

“There is no such thing as ‘away. When we throw anything away it must go somewhere.” – Annie Leonard, Proponent of Sustainability

“When you put the whole picture together, recycling is the right thing to do.” – Pam Shoemaker, Author

In our school community, we propose to have better information and knowledge to the awareness of the COVID-19 Crisis Pandemic. We should give importance and substantial perception on how to deal with the pandemic, especially in students. How dangerous and harmful in our health to dealing with the pandemic in our society. So as a student in the institution we need knowledgable information to protect and maintain our body healthy. In the future of pandemic, consciousness and always prepared in the activity and some news about COVID-19 to ensure to have a better lifestyle during a pandemic.

Physical distancing helps limit the spread of COVID-19 – this means we keep a distance of at least 1m from each other and avoid spending time in crowded places or in groups. Protect yourself and others.​ Break the chain of transmission. - WHO, Western Pacific Region
