What’s In
The previous module talked about the causes and sources of cultural, social,
and political change. One of the causes of these changes is technology as the driving
force behind globalization. One of the sources of these changes is innovation which
refers to changing or creating more effective processes and ideas into something that
can create value. After completing the previous module, it is hope that the lessons
being discussed brought a big impact to you as a learner in order for you to identify

What Is It
Many researchers on global warming and climate change focus mostly on what
it will bring to the future. Climate change serves as a new challenge to humans today.
The changing climatic conditions that we experience tell us that there is an existing
environmental problem that needs to be addressed immediately so that it will not give
too much negative impact to human beings in the future. Everyone must do something
and act on global warming and climate change to ensure the survival of human
species.
Today, different programs are being implemented worldwide to prevent further
global warming and avoid climate change. Despite of this, its effect will definitely last
many years from now. Therefore, adaptation to the resulting changes in climate
change is necessary. The goal of adaptation to climate change is to increase the ability
of our environmental, social, and economic system to cope with the problem.

Transnational Migration and Overseas Filipino Workers
Transnational migrants are those persons who having migrated from one
nation-state to another, live their lives across borders, participating simultaneously in
social relations that embed them in more than one nation-state.
Overseas Filipino Worker is a person of Filipino origin who lives and works
outside of the Philippines. This term applies to Filipinos who are abroad indefinitely as
citizens or as permanent residents of a different country and to those Filipino citizens
who are abroad for a limited, definite period as workers or as students. They are called
bagong bayani ng bayan.
New media. From media to mass media, to electronic media, and now to the
so-called new media. Technology has a great influence on our way of living; it also
widens our social circle. New media is a generic term for the many different forms of
electronic communication that are made possible through the use of computer
technology.
Social networking is a more casual form of social media. The most popular
example is Facebook. Social networking is just one of the different forms and types of
social media. Others include forums, microblogging, bookmarking, video sites and
search engines.

What I Can Do
Activity 5: TAKE CARE OF THE ENVIRONMENT
In times of crisis, food is our utmost essential need. Considering the many
challenges faced by our families this time, you can always help them in your own little
ways. How? Cultivate your vacant lot into a vegetable garden. If you are living in an
urban community, make an innovation by cultivating an urban garden using recyclable
materials as your pots/plots. In this way, you do your share to help your family and
you do your share in taking care of the environment.
