These include creating greater scale and impact for the telco’s programs on solid waste management via its large-scale initiative “Project 1 Phone,” energy conservation with its commitment to the Earth Hour and Earth Day celebrations, carbon offsetting through the successful stagings of the Cordillera (Cordi) Challenge, as well as biodiversity and habitat protection by partnering with organizations such as the Philippine Eagle Foundation.

For the past years, Globe Business has likewise been working closely with the Philippine Eagle Foundation (PEF), a nonprofit organization dedicated to save the Philippine Eagle and its habitats, one of which is in the Arakan Valley in North Cotabato in east central Mindanao.

The collaboration has benefited agroforestry projects of the Forest Corridor Development Program, community-based initiatives program and empowering communities through solar energy, among others, in that particular area.

On June 12, Globe Business will lead efforts to release Philippine Eagle “Pamana” inside the Mt. Hamiguitan World Heritage site, which is the natural home to the same species of endangered birds.

Pamana was rehabilitated by the PEF for three years after suffering from gunshot wounds, and its reintroduction to the area will contribute to increase and improve its population once it finds a mate and breeds.

One of the biggest campaigns mounted in the country which heeds the call for environmental sustainability, Project 1 Phone of Globe Telecom continues to expand its reach by leading the promotion of proper disposal and recycling of electronic wastes (e-wastes).

Acosta confirmed that by engaging Globe Business customers as well as Globe customers as a whole, e-waste collection increased by 111%.
