Pfizer supports PRC’s COVID-19 efforts. In 2020, Pfizer and Pfizer Foundation announced their commitment to donate $40M for worldwide relief efforts for COVID-19 through international non-government organizations (NGOs) and partners. Among those chosen beneficiary organizations was the Philippine Red Cross (PRC) for its efforts in relief operations and for taking the lead in performing more than one million RT-PCR tests in the Philippines. Last January, Pfizer Philippines formally turned over a $100,000 (P5 million) grant to PRC to support its COVID-19 relief efforts and projects. The virtual turnover event (in photo) was attended by Pfizer Country Manager Andreas Riedel, Pfizer Public Affairs Director Noel Borlongan, PRC Chairman and CEO Senator Richard Gordon, PRC Secretary General Elizabeth Zavalla, PRC Biomolecular Laboratories head Dr. Paulyn Ubial, and American Red Cross Country Representative Shir Shah Ayobi.  

Climate change is an urgent issue that cannot be ignored; hence, Bonifacio Global City shifts its focus to lessen its carbon emission and residuals while continuously building a more involved community that champions sustainable and eco-friendly initiatives and advocacies. In 2020, BGC successfully cut its carbon emission down to 37% while offsetting 62% of greenhouse gas by converting streetlights, parks, and buildings with a renewable energy source, encouraging alternative transportation modes, and planting trees and shrubs around the city. The 3,800 trees in its 240-hectare estate helped improve the urban microclimate.  Establishing the 16-kilometer shared and dedicated bus and Personal Mobility Device (PMD) lanes enabled many commuters and car drivers to switch to bicycles and electric kick scooters. By the end of 2020, BGC recorded 5,000 bicycles and other PMD users daily, compared to only 500 users pre-pandemic.  For solid waste, BGC organized a w...
