Raising Environmental Awareness Among the Youth

Helen Mangente, Advantek’s Global Compliance Director, recently spoke to STEM students at Sto. Tomas Senior High in Batangas, Philippines, sharing insights on environmental sustainability.

She covered an evolution of environmental challenges, from ozone depletion to managing greenhouse gasses and climate change. Frameworks like ISO 14001 and ISO 10064, as well as international protocols were highlighted – with a focus on effective monitoring, evaluation, and transparency being key factors to meaningful improvement.

The discussion gave students a deeper understanding of how businesses can balance social responsibility, environmental stewardship, and economic viability.
