LBC starts green initiatives

I was just looking up information on how I can send packages to my sisters in the U.S., so I visited LBC‘s website. Not only did I find what I was looking for, but I was pleasantly surprised to read news about their green projects and changes. They’ve switched to biodegradable plastic for their delivery pouches, and they also launched the LBC Linis Dagat (Ocean Clean-up) program. In this program, families from a community in the province of Batangas collect plastic waste which is then sent to a facility that molds them into shelving materials, which are then used in LBC facilities all over the Philippines. It’s a win-win-win situation for all. We’d definitely love to hear from green projects from LBC; my sister’s been fond of them ever since she found out they were shipping donations to victims of Typhoon Ondoy for free.
