ACTIVITY DESIGN
Activity Title: TREE PLANTING AND GROWING PROJECT

RATIONALE
Forest restoration has become an area of increasing interest and
activity in recent years, ranging from small-scale efforts by NGO’s
and communities to large-scale international commitments.

According to Section 8 of Republic Act No. 10176, otherwise

known as the Arbor Day Act of 2012, “All able-bodied citizens of
the Philippines, who are at least twelve (12) years of age, shall be
required to plant one (1) tree every year.”  It is hereby declared
the policy of the State to protect and advance the right of the
people to a balanced and healthful ecology in accord with the
rhythm and harmony of nature. Towards this end, the vital role
and importance of trees in ecological stability is recognized.
Hence, there is a need for a collaborated effort between the State
and its citizenry to combat the loss of our natural resources and
rejuvenate our environment by undertaking nationwide tree
planting activities and providing effective measures for their
maintenance and sustainability.

Thus, the Negros Oriental State University joins the call to restore
and reforest the degraded forest landscapes of Negros.
