DENR Region VII Conducts Symposium to LNNHS Learners
On June 11, 2026, the Grade 10 students of Looc Norte National High School, together with YES-O, BKB, and SSLG officers, attended a DENR-led symposium at the school about the Tañon Strait and its biodiversity. The activity helped students understand marine ecosystems, the variety of life they support, and the role these ecosystems play in protecting the environment.
Students learned about ecosystem services—provisioning, regulating, supporting, and cultural—and how human activities can affect them. They also learned about protected areas in the Philippines, including natural parks, wildlife sanctuaries, and seascapes like the Tañon Strait Protected Seascape, showing the importance of conservation and caring for nature.
The activity reminded students that protecting biodiversity is a responsibility and an opportunity to be informed, caring, and responsible leaders. By joining, they strengthened their commitment to protecting the environment and building a more sustainable future.
