When it comes to saving the planet, grand gestures often steal the spotlight—but it’s the small, everyday choices that quietly shape tomorrow. SM Prime Holdings, Inc. knows this well, and through the SM Green Movement, it’s proving that “simple acts” can create a shared and lasting impact for generations to come.
Born during the pandemic, the Green Movement began with stories of employees reducing waste, conserving water, and using energy responsibly—even in lockdown. Those little choices planted the seeds of a nationwide sustainability drive that now unites employees, tenants, communities, and mallgoers under one vision: a greener, more climate-resilient Philippines.
The Everyday Revolution
The movement zooms in on three essentials—waste, water, and energy—translating big sustainability goals into habits everyone can practice. It’s not just about reducing carbon emissions (SM Prime is targeting net-zero by 2040), but also about making greener living feel doable, whether you’re a student, shopper, or supplier.
As SM Supermalls EVP for Marketing Joaquin San Agustin puts it:
“We’re not just building malls, homes, or offices—we’re building opportunities for everyone to be part of the solution. And the best part is, it starts with what we do every day.”
Powered by Partnerships
Lasting change doesn’t happen in silos. The SM Green Movement thrives because of collaboration—working with local governments, NGOs, schools, and communities to design solutions that are both sustainable and practical.
Every recycled bottle, every drop of water saved, every watt conserved—it all counts. Or as San Agustin notes, “The SM Green Movement is all about collective impact.”
Greener Tomorrows, Today
From individual action to community-wide campaigns, the SM Green Movement is reframing sustainability as something achievable, relatable, and urgent. It’s no longer just about protecting the planet—it’s about creating a better quality of life, now and for the generations that follow.
Because the truth is simple: when many people do small things, the future gets big, bright, and green.
