The campus utilizes its vast land area to foster a rich variety of tree species that tower the colleges, providing a cleaner breeze that is in contrast to the polluted urban area beyond where adverse products of traffic are present. Thus, the omnipresence of trees–which paints the BSU landscape green or ‘luntian’–is able to exemplify the university’s efforts to live by the fifteenth SDG.

  Entry #2: Small LIFE by Rimei Jay M. Garcia

The picture depicts the leaf-footed bug, or Leptoglossus phyllopus. Even while little insects are occasionally mistakenly classified as pests or unusable in daily life, Not all insects are pests. They pollinate many of our fruits, flowers, and vegetables. We wouldn’t have as much of the produce that we adore and rely on if insects hadn’t pollinated it. Like dogs, cats, elephants, and other creatures, insects also have the life on land. For this reason, BSU works to preserve, restore, and encourage the sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems through efforts that avoid biodiversity loss.

Entry #23: I can see it with my eyes something blue! Alcedo atthis bengalensis Gmelin, 1788 by Jannesse C. Pacio

The Eurasian or River kingfisher is an important member of ecosystem and good indicator of freshwater community health. The highest densities of breeding birds are found in habitats with clear water, which permits optimal prey visibility, and trees or shrubs on the banks. These habitats have also the highest quality of water, so the presence of this bird confirms the standard of the water (Peris & Rodriguez, 1996). Measures to improve water flow can disrupt this habitat, and in particular, the replacement of natural banks by artificial confinement greatly reduces the populations of fish, amphibians and aquatic reptiles, and waterside birds are lost (Lin 𝘦𝘵 𝘢𝘭., 2007). It can tolerate a certain degree of urbanization, provided the water remains clean.

Entry #24: Sipag at Ngiti: Kuwento ng Pagpupunyagi by Antonina Angela P. Sta Ana

Sa gitna ng init ng araw at abalang kalsada, si ate ay patuloy na naglalako ng kakanin, dala ang isang ngiti na tila walang kapantay. Ang larawan ng kanyang pagtitiyaga ay hindi lamang kwento ng simpleng pagtatrabaho, kundi ng pag-asa para sa disenteng kabuhayan. Isinasalaysay ng kanyang ngiti ang kahalagahan ng dignidad sa paggawa—isang panawagan ng Sustainable Development Goal 8, na nagsusulong ng disenteng trabaho at paglago ng ekonomiya. Ang kanyang kwento ay sumasalamin sa mga adhikain ng Benguet State University, na patuloy na sumusuporta sa pagtataguyod ng mga komunidad sa pamamagitan ng edukasyon at serbisyo. Sa kabila ng hirap, ipinapakita ni ate na ang sipag at tiwala sa sarili ay susi sa mas maunlad na bukas, isang pamana ng BSU sa paglilingkod sa lipunan.
