Environmental degradation is said to be one of the main problem of our society. We cannot deny the fact that our coastal areas are already polluted due to human malpractices.

On 26 September 2010, as we celebrate the 10th International Coastal Clean-Up Drive, the Masigasigs of the Headquarters Service Company, together with the students of Central College of Calauag polished the Coastal area at Pinagtaleran, Calauag, Quezon.
