Since the release of the memorandum about the establishment of the ESOP local chapters in 2009. More and more Eagle Scouts subscribed to the memorandum in order to unify all Eagle Scout Awardees in one national organization. The letter sent by the BSP Secretary General will surely provide assurance that the ESOP is a legal and in progress of becoming more strong and appreciated by all Eagle Scouts through Ages.

This is extremely important for each scouts, for them to realize their responsibility for preserving the environment, to make it a part of daily life, create the same attitude in their families, and spread it to the community.

As a concern scout, we sometimes see ‘the environment issues as far away from us. But we must learn from the problems that are faced by the highly advanced nations to set the proper path from the beginning.
