Miss Earth candidates are set to visit Nuvali, Ayala Land’s largest master-eco-community spanning the cities of Sta. Rosa and Calamba in Laguna, for activities that highlight harmony of modern living with nature.
On Tuesday, November 10, the beauties for the Miss Earth pageant will experience that Nuvali has laid out for its residents and visitors within its 1,750-hectare expanse. With an “evoliving” concept, an integrated approach to sustainability, Nuvali provides the international pageant a youthful, fun, yet certainly responsible backdrop – the pageant’s advocacy for the environment which the eco-community shares.
The ladies will take part in a tree-planting activity which is part of Nuvali’s overall tree-planting program that further adds to the community’s ecology. Nuvali is already home to 55 flora species and 76 fauna species.
With a story entitled “The Last Tree,” Miss Cuba will lead a story-telling session to a group of children who are from communities surrounding Nuvali. The children will later receive school supplies and shoes from the Miss Earth pageant through Nuvali’s integrated social responsibility program.
In partnership with National Bookstore, the activity supports and encourages the Grade 1 students and the rest of the community on the virtues of pursuing education.
Other groups sponsoring the activities are Manila Water, Italianni’s restaurant which has a branch at the Solenad retail center and Globe. The latter donated directories which are recycled by Nuvali’s adopted communities to make baskets and which will be presented to the visiting beauties and guests as gifts.
Dr. Myrna Pamplona, school district superintendent, will be among those present to witness the activities. Meann Dy, Ayala Land Senior Vice President, and Jun Bisnar, Ayala Land Vice President and Nuvali General Manager, will present Ayala Land’s experiences on promoting sustainability.
A site tour takes them to the picturesque lake which also serves to harvest rainwater to prevent flooding. Here, they will ride taxi-boats to bring them to Solenad. At the dock, koi-feeding and pleasurable photo opportunities are part of the activities.
At Nuvali, all of Ayala Land’s business units and subsidiaries take active part in shaping the eco-community that helps realize a sustainable future through life modes that have lower carbon footprints. Nuvali hosts the largest double piping system that allows use of recycled water where the use of potable water is not required. It has extensive road networks featuring dedicated bike and pedestrian lanes.

Houses For Sale in the Philippines was built to feature houses in the Philippines worthy of selling to those who work hard for the money they have. It also stemmed from the unfortunate incident we had with buying a property that up to this day, was not turned over to us.
