Many companies worldwide have pledged to adopt eco-friendly practices. These include transitioning to renewable resources, advocating for greener initiatives, and offering customers the best service with minimal environmental impact.

In the Philippines, three leaders have stepped up to promote various sustainable initiatives, setting examples for the rest of the business community to follow.
