07/29/12 Insights and Reflections about the term "Low Pressure Area (LPA)"
Today, I have learned that...
- Low Pressure Areas or simply LPA are particular regions in the earth that are currently experiencing sudden drop in atmospheric pressure at sea level. They form under areas of wind divergence which occur in upper levels of the troposphere. The formation process of a low-pressure area is known as cyclogenesis. Within the field of atmospheric dynamics, areas of wind divergence aloft occur in two areas.
II. I will apply my learnings about...
- Low Pressure Areas and certain factors that strengthen the said phenomenon that may eventually lead into the formation of storm within the expected area.
III. Learning about this phenomenon is important because...
-In these cases, we can be informed regarding these circumstances that we might experience hence, we may take the time to prepare if ever LPAs reach or may affect our locality/area; and also by this, we can gain the knowledge on how Low pressure areas may strengthen and whether it will develop into a storm.
IV. On a larger scale, I will share my learnings on these phenomenons because...
- By this, We can be informed about the factors that affects the formation of Low Pressure Areas and how it's effects ca be minimized by preparing for it in terms of readiness.
V. I need to know more about...
- Different factors that may affect the formation of Low pressure areas and its effects.

07/27/12 Low Carbon Diet [LCD] Journal Entry #8: "Nutrition for Humans and likewise, for Earth."
This last school week, we held the nutrition month appreciation program and contests. Some of my classmates participated in the said event under the cooking field. Even though we didn't won the contest, we still learned and at least practiced earth-friendly habits during this event.
When we participated in the contest, particularly on the poster and slogan making ones, the paper/cartolina/illustration boards that we used did not went to waste when it is considered only as a draft. Instead, we donated the papers to the III-A students; while recycling the Illustration Boards and Cartolinas as a fundamental material in our class projects. This way, we help to lessen the rate of need, particularly on papers that are produced by cutting down trees.
I surely felt that I helped to save Mother Nature even by the smallest mean/s in doing it.

07/20/12 Low Carbon Diet [LCD] Journal Entry #7: "Human and Earth Nutritional Needs Reflection week"
This last school week, we were asked to do many activities concerning about the nutrition month. We held contests of different variety in certain fields to express our innermost thoughts about the nutrition month. But! Didn't we know that not only we, humans, need sufficient nutrients and acts to survive, but also Mother Nature, who helps to sustain us. So here are some ways on how I can help meet the needs of Mother Nature.
I always remember not to litter garbages anywhere. I also advice my fellow students to just keep their garbages if ever a trash bin is out of sight. I also help nourish Mother Nature by helping in planting trees and watering the plants. I also limited my electrical "needs" as low as I can.
I surely hope that I help to nourish Mother Nature in simple yet efficient ways.

06/22/12 Low Carbon Diet Journal (LCD) Entry #3: "A normal yet clean-green week"
This last school week, we had many activities in our school class. My mind is pretty much exhausted from activities and quizzes that must be done. But! Even I was a bit troubled with school works every while, I still do not give up for in this way, I help in repaying my debts to my parents. So do when I clean my environment this week to repay Mother Nature's kindness.
I always conserve water when it comes to times when it is needed such as brushing my teeth, in terms of using a cup to fill in the water instead of letting the faucet drip with water at a great loss. I also cleaned my environment in ways of dusting the floor, watering the plant and by not littering anywhere.
In these ways, I show my appreciation to Mother Nature for it's kindness and generosity.

07/14/12 Insights and Reflections about the term "Tropical Depression"
Today, I have learned that...
- Tropical Depressions are an organized system of clouds and thunderstorms with a well-defined circular motion that has no "eye". I had also learned that tropical depression is one of the so-called terminologies for a tropical cyclone. I also learned it's root origin and it's sub-details which proves to that it has a relationship with other weather circumstances such as ITCZs and monsoons.
II. I will apply my learnings about...
-Tropical Depressions and its specified effects and its inverse terminologies in terms of its effect to a certain communities' lifestyle and livelihood.
III. Learning about this phenomenon is important because...
-In this way, I can be fully aware of its effects thus, relatively be particular to this phenomenon such as future application of this new found knowledge; furthermost, I will be able to prepare and minimize the down effects of this phenomenon accordingly in terms of safety.
IV. On a larger scale, I will share my learnings on these phenomenons because...
-By this, not only I will be fully aware of these events and circumstances but also every one who must said to be concerned on how will they react and know the solution in the likeness therefore, reducing this phenomenon's destructive effect unto certain fields such as ecology and any other under its domain.
V. I need to know more about...
- Tropical depressions and factors that may and surely affect the variation of tropical depressions in terms of its strength and likewise its weakness.
07/13/12 Insights and Reflections about El Niño and La Niña
Today, I have learned that...
- El Niño and La Niña greatly differs from one another. El Niño is a phenomenon wherein a specific place is observing a change in weather and humidity; particularly getting hotter and may furthermore, experience drought. While in La Niña, it is completely different. In places wherein La Niña is observed, individuals there experiences sudden drop in temperature henceforth, may lead into series of rainy days and flash floods.
II. I will apply my learnings about...
- La Niños and La Niñas and their inverse effects respectively to each other in terms of knowing and determining on when these phenomenon will happen thus, preparing for such events.
III. Learning about this phenomenon is important because...
-In this way, we can relate these' phenomenon's effects on our daily lives therefore, may force us to vary our lifestyle while these phenomenons are observed in your region. we also may take the time we had before these phenomenons happen to prepare for such effects.
IV. On a larger scale, I will share my learnings on these phenomenons because...
- It is essential when these phenomenons occur; we may be able to prepare for such devastation these might bring to us; or if cannot be avoided, perhaps minimizing the bad effects of these circumstances will also do good.
V. I need to know more about...
- El Niño and La Niña and its relationship with monsoons and ITCZ in terms of its effects.
07/13/12 Insights and Reflections about the term "Monsoon".
I. Today, I have learned that...
- Monsoon is a traditionally defined weather term, where as it's definition is that of "a seasonal reversing wind accompanied by seasonal changes in precipitation. I also learned that monsoon arrival are varied from seasons hence, literally affects particular weather cycles such as what we call as "wet" and "dry" cycle. I also gained the knowledge of it's etymology, to where it has been derived, pro founded the depths of it's origin and details on its founder.
II. I will apply my learnings about...
-Monsoons and it's specified effect on a particular place, conditional time and state. Thus, being knowledgeable of its arrivals and its departure.
III. Learning about this phenomenon is important because...
-In these ways, I became physically and socially aware of it's effects and alteration of the weather therefore, being able to prepare for these circumstances whenever we observe such changes in the sky and weather.
IV. On a larger scale, I will share my learnings on these phenomenons because...
- When these phenomenons are as to be expected in relation to the daily weather forecast brought by a reliable source such as PAG ASA, we may be able to prepare and minimize the below effect of monsoons.
V. I need to know more about...
- Monsoons and it's relationship to ITCZ in order to be AWARE and ACQUAINTED in terms of it's effects.

07/07/12 Low Carbon Diet Journal (LCD) Entry #5: "Wise electing, wise decision, wise environment, no regrets"
This last school week, we elected our own governor, vice governor and every other position under it's domain. Voting wisely here is certainly a must, for our school level province/divisions environment cleanliness highly depends on them, well also, depends on us, too. So here are some of my simple means of helping to nurture and save Mother nature.
I always dispose my wastes/ garbages properly, whether in terms of the policy, "Keep if cannot dispose properly", which refers on being wise in disposing garbages. I also helped maintain the population of plants by planting some this weekends. I also helped to clean my surroundings by simply dusting the floor and walking instead of vehicles.
This is what I call " One Giant step for earning ", the title, "guardian of nature" with diligence and wisely. I certainly do not feel any remorse with what I have done.

06/29/12 Low Carbon Diet Journal (LCD) Entry #4: "The benefit of making steps"
This week is pretty harsh compared to the previous ones before. We ran a 1 kilometer run during our P.E Class, which prompted my legs to hurt after. But, this also made me realize something to help Mother Nature in such means that I don't need to conserve energy, and at the same time, reduces smoke emitted in the air.
And this idea I thought is to walk instead of using smoke inducing vehicles if it is just a walking distance. I also consider in this idea I thought, that I also helped reduce the burning of fuels/oil, which is a natural source of mineral/energy that cannot be replaced. I also saved money for not using vehicles.
I hit many goals (approx. 4) in just one act! I surely hoped that I helped to safeguard Mother Nature.
