Lipa homeowners target zero waste, waste to energy
In a significant stride toward environmental sustainability and efficient waste management, the homeowners of Lipa City, through the concerted efforts of the Lipa City Federation of Homeowners Association Inc. and the robust support of the Lipa City local government, are actively backing a zero waste and waste-to-energy program.
This initiative marks a major step in safeguarding the environment and ensuring consistent garbage collection by professional collectors.
Gary Llanes, vice president for business development of Alterna Verde Corp., highlighted the project’s adherence to stringent environmental standards.
“Our facility utilizes an advanced anaerobic digestion technology from Thailand. This process doesn’t burn waste or use high temperatures. Instead, we capture methane gas from the waste to power our generators, significantly reducing carbon emissions and providing a cleaner solution for the community.”
This collaborative effort between the homeowners federation and the city LGU underscores a shared commitment to creating a cleaner and healthier Lipa City. By embracing zero waste principles and exploring waste-to-energy solutions, the community is not only addressing the immediate challenge of waste disposal but also investing in a sustainable future.
The focus on professional garbage collection further ensures that the program is implemented effectively, providing residents with reliable and regular service.
