CDO Idol Cheesedog has launched their new
environmental awareness program for kids called Go Idol, Go R3. This
project is a multi-pronged values-formation for kids geared towards
encouraging them to live out the R3 principles - Reduce, Reuse, and
Recycle.
Aired on GMA 7's show Art Angel, CDO developed a
segment to demonstrate how various common household considered as
garbage can be easily transformed by kids for new purposes. An
empty, disposable water jug received new life as a recycled garbage
can or flower pot.
"A bright future begins with the youth," says Neo
Patawaran, Brand Manager of CDO Foodsphere Inc. "Ang mga bata kasi,
likas na malikhain (Kids, you see, are naturally creative) and we
want to encourage them to channel their creativity into more
environmenta-related projects so they can become aware and
responsible at an early age. We at CDO believe in children's ability
to contribute in the protection of the environment so that the next
future generation will have something to enjoy."
The activities hope to inspire in children a more caring attitude
towards the environment while empowering them to lead.
