We believe that environmental education is not the job for teachers alone. We have to get involved and make environmental education a community shared responsibility.

1. Coconut water are among the many wasted agricultural resources in my locality. Farmers only harvest the meat for
copra and the valuable liquid only find its way drying up in the fields. The same practice also happen in our city public
market grinding establishments. They end up in canals and drainage system too. We will try to utilize these resources
into vinegar for the pupils of Tomas Oppus Pilot School science experiment activity this June 2016 school year opening.
Maybe it might enhance early entrepreneurial skills to form in young minds of students.
Already we have started little experimentation at home and intend to do further experiments with pupils and
teachers at Tomas Oppus Pilot School. We hope to find feasible ways to make this vinegar and share processes for other
communities to apply.
An average daily collection of 25 to 30 liters of
coconut water was collected in one stall. There
are 4 establishments doing the same business.
Boil liquid and allow to simmer for 5 minutes
Sift liquid with cloth or other fine material

Continue finding cheaper ways in coco water vinegar
making and have more samples experimentations
