PolSci plants Mangrooves

By Jorica Ravacio

How would you view a world where there are as many plants as there are people? It would be then a clean and green world isn’t it? But as of now it is far beyond happening. In a 21st century world, ecology is undergoing its own version of living, its own version of surviving. Survival of the Fittest we must say; Global Warming, a current phenomena which our globe is currently enduring.

However, on a brighter note, the Department of Political Science through its students has been truly dedicated to its firm conviction of promoting ecology with the aim of maintaining a sustainable society.

Last February 25, 2011 at exactly 7:00 a.m. in the morning the Department conducted a Coastal clean-up and Mangrove planting at Bayug island, Iligan City. It is a small remote area far from the city’s noise where people live in simplicity and beauty. The small island of Bayug embraces the vast body of water, the Iligan Bay. On the shore are mangroves which serve as fish sanctuary.

It is good to know that in a chaotic world there exist people who would want to promote the welfare and common good for everyone. It is far beyond doubt that the Political Science Department is not just bound in the dynamics of politics and governance but also bound to the belief that a clean and green world would provide a peaceful and sustainable society.
