I said it already many, many times: I admire people, who go green taking care of our environment. Sure, also if those people are from the media. I have a lot of friends there - of course, also in GMA-Television-Network, which turns 60 this year.
GMA is really going beyond business as it counts among its priorities the corporate social responsibility of promoting environmental awareness and conservation. In a press release, one could learn that today GMA perpetuates eco-friendly practices and projects to counter the effects of environment degradation.
"GMA Network, as a media company, plays an important role helping save the environment, "said Carmencita G. Arce, consultant of the company's Corporate Affairs Division and one of the proponents of GMA's Network environmental advocacy program dubbed "Kapuso ng Kalikasan". GMA has implemented a number of "green initiatives, i.e. enegery and water conservations.
GMA Network is also conscious of proper waste disposal and has been implementing a waste management scheme that encourages employees to reduce, recycle,a and reuse office materials and supplies. Vry important - look at our surroundings, especially our rivers: they are full of trash. The drainage systems are also clogged by wastes of different kind.
Among any other things, of course, GMA-Network also produced special environmental documentaries like "Signos: Banta ng Nagbabagong Klima, which provided a comprehensive view of climate change. During the Earth Day Celebration, GMA Network produced a special "One Earth-One Journey", which showcased the essence of the Earth Day Celebration through music merged with visual art display that highlighted the importance of preserving our beloved Mother Earth.
