Developers leading the way in greener projects

As sustainability becomes a priority, building greener cities has emerged as a key focus for developers. Strategies such as energy-efficient buildings and eco-friendly public spaces are helping reduce environmental impact while creating more sustainable and livable urban areas.

This push for sustainability aligns with the Manila Bulletin’s 125-year legacy of sharing stories that shape the future and promote positive change. In line with this, Manila Bulletin (MB) Property & Living has curated a list of developers adopting green practices in urban planning, all united in creating a more sustainable world. MB continues to spotlight these essential stories of progress and innovation.
