At SM Supermalls, going green is easy! Whether you’re shopping, dining, or simply strolling around, there are many ways to make eco-friendly choices. Here are seven simple habits to help reduce waste, conserve resources, and support sustainability during your next visit:
Bring Your Own Reusable Bags
Say no to plastic! Bring your own tote or cloth bag when shopping to reduce waste and keep plastic out of landfills. The best part? At SM Store and SM Supermarket, you won’t have to pay extra for a bag if you bring your own—saving money while saving the planet!
Refill Your Water Bottle
Stay hydrated the sustainable way! Instead of buying bottled water, bring your own tumbler and use the water refill stations at SM Foodcourt. This small switch helps cut down on plastic waste and is a cost-effective way to stay refreshed.
Recycle at Designated Bins
SM Supermalls provide recycling stations throughout the mall for paper, plastic, and even electronic waste. Disposing of items responsibly helps reduce landfill waste and supports a cleaner environment. Every small effort counts!
Dispose of Old Electronic Devices Responsibly
Have an old phone, charger, or other electronic accessories lying around? Look for the Electronic Devices and Accessories Disposal Bins at SM Cyberzone. These special bins ensure that e-waste is properly collected and recycled instead of ending up in landfills.
Turn Trash into Cash
SM Supermalls run a “Trash to Cash” recycling market where you can bring recyclable materials like paper, plastic, and metal in exchange for cash! This initiative promotes responsible waste disposal and gives recyclables a second life while rewarding your eco-friendly habits.
Use E-Vehicle Charging Stations
Driving an electric vehicle (EV)? SM Supermalls have E-Vehicle Charging Stations available for eco-conscious shoppers. Reduce your carbon footprint by switching to clean energy while you shop, dine, or run errands.
Support Local and Sustainable Brands
Check out pop-up markets and kiosks at SM Store that feature handmade, fair-trade, and upcycled products. Supporting local artisans and sustainable businesses helps reduce environmental impact and promotes ethical shopping practices.
