On March 25, 2023, the YES-O Club at Putlod San Jose National High School once again took a significant step towards environmental consciousness by organizing an Earth Hour event. This annual initiative aimed to raise awareness about energy conservation and inspire a collective commitment to address climate change.
Campaign and Participation:

To kickstart the Earth Hour campaign, YES-O posted an engaging message to their social media platform, urging students to participate by turning off their lights for an hour. The call to action resonated with the community, as students embraced the opportunity to contribute to a global movement for environmental change.
Virtual Gathering:
Despite the physical separation, the virtual space became a unifying platform for the YES-O community during Earth Hour. This virtual gathering not only showcased the scale of participation but also created a shared experience, reinforcing the sense of unity within the YES-O family.
Community Engagement:

The success of Earth Hour was not just in the collective act of turning off lights but in the active engagement of students. This event became a visual testament to the commitment of the school community towards sustainable practices and environmental responsibility.
Symbolism of Darkness:
Beyond the practical act of conserving energy, Earth Hour symbolized a moment of reflection. In the darkness, students contemplated the impact of their daily actions on the planet, fostering a deeper connection to the global effort to combat climate change.
Expression of Gratitude:
As the hour concluded, YES-O expressed gratitude to all participants for their enthusiastic involvement. The collective effort demonstrated that even small actions, when multiplied, can contribute to meaningful change.
The Earth Hour 2023 organized by YES-O transcended the physical turning off of lights; it illuminated a path towards a future where environmental consciousness and collective action go hand in hand. The YES-O Club continues to be a beacon of inspiration, encouraging the school community to make a positive impact on the planet one action at a time.
