The Role of ICT on EDSA

(People Power Revolution)

Information and communication Technology(ICT) plays an import6yant role in our world today. ICT is an umbrella term that includes any communication device or application,encompassing; radio,television,cellular cellphones, computer and network hardware and software, satellite system and so on, as well as the various services and distance learning. ICT's are often spoken of in a particular context. In 1986 millions of unarmed Filipinos surprised the world by nonviolently overthrowing the brutal dictator Ferdinand Marcos,they called their movement "people power".

In order for Cory Aquino to marshall a popular democratic movement, she needed Radio Veritas, a 24-hour AM radio station operated by the Roman Catholic Church, because it served as the primary communication platfor for the democratic opposition. Aquino and her cadres used Radio Veritas to inform Filipinos of political development and organize them for nonviolent protests. Marcos prevented local media from broadcasting news of his death.


Through the help of Radio during EDSA(People Power Revolution ) Aquino are comfortable to communicate and inform Filipinos to make a protest against Marcos. Without Radio Veritas it would have been difficult for them to mobilize millions of people in a matter of hours.

Environmental Conservation and Action

 

"CONSERVATION IS A STATE OF HARMONY BETWEEN MEN AND LAND"

 "Environmental conservation" is the broad term for anything that furthers the goal of making life more sustainable for the planet. Ultimately, people want to help the planet survive naturally and with no negative impact from the human race. Helping keep the planet safe and healthy is called "conservation."

Sooner or later, we will have to recognize that the earth has rights,too, to live without pollution.What mankind must know is that human being cannot live without Mother Earth, but the planet can live without humans. If you cant clean your surroundings then don't make it dirty.The environment is in us, not outside of us. 

The trees are our lungs , the rivers our bloodstream.We are all interconnected, and what you do to the environment , ultimately you do to yourself. We won't have a society if we destroy the environment. We should take an action to preserve our beautiful environment , we as one can save our Mother Earth. We should plant more trees, keep clean our rivers and taking good care of our environment can heal the earth. Nature is our treasure, help save it.
