Summit Water New Packaging to Save 1.5M Tons in CO2

Summit Natural Drinking Water, in its continuing effort to inspire Filipinos to thirst for more, has reached for a new goal – to lower its carbon footprint. In a simple but effective packaging change, Summit 500 ml and 350 ml bottles now sport a more streamlined cap that saves almost 500,000 tons of manufactured PET a year. 

This is equivalent to the amount of carbon absorbed by 3.7 million trees[1], or removing over 100,000 cars[2] from the road for one year. The initiative is part of Summit Water’s latest campaign – Thirst for More, by defying limits, stepping out of comfort zones, and going beyond the norm. By being conscious of the environment, Summit Water has upped its game, encouraging Filipinos to do the same.

HEALTHY LYF: Daily Essentials to a Healthy Body

Keeping your body fit is a lifetime commitment and a year-round activity. But it doesn’t get as much attention as it does during the summer months, when our bodies are displayed in full glory – showing how much we have cared for, or neglected, the daily essentials to keep fit and healthy.

Let’s start with your head. A sound mind is the first step to a healthy body, and this is the one part we most often neglect. Think positive and surround yourself with people and things that reinforce your strengths and correct your weaknesses. 

Next, have a happy heart. We don’t just mean the one beating and keeping you alive, although this is important too. Find inspiration in simple things to keep you going – when you are inspired, you will perspire for whatever it is you aspire to.

Involve your entire body. Now that you have your head and heart covered, it’s time to turn yourself outward. Eat well, exercise, and get your body moving. You may not see the effects of an unhealthy lifestyle now, but it will catch up with you sooner or later.
