Eco-Friendly House Development in the Philippines

We are all aware that most of the eco-friendly efforts have been concentrated in most parts of the world, especially the better off nations. However, do not just discount third world countries as the Philippines just yet. They too are making progress to a certain degree although not as aggressive as the countries of the United States and Europe.

There are a lot of factors to consider such as finances and technology. While the Philippines is indeed considered one of the frontrunners in embracing technology, its resources is not that advanced to date. But that should not stop it from providing eco-friendly homes to the masses. There are alternatives to answer these needs such as alternative power and raw materials used to safeguard the current number of resources that we all need.

Nuvali uses the strict environment standards of the United States Green Building Council. “Planting more trees, solid waste recycling and the efficient use of energy are just some of the ways that Nuvali will implement to have a pleasant environment atmosphere,” explains Jaime Ayala, president and chief executive officer of Ayala Land.

Committed to creating an eco-friendly place, Nuvali’s residential houses will be built with double piping that will allow water to be recycled. To promote a healthy lifestyle, the place will promote walking and biking on its tree-lined streets to lessen the use of motor vehicles that emits pollution. Nuvali will also have their own environmentally friendly transportation system that would bring its residents to various places in Metro Manila.
