The Eco-House is all about nature. This man-made edifice is largely built upon the energy and material flow of the larger eco-system where it belongs. It aimed to enhance the environment by conserving valuable resources such as energy, water and other materials as well as in showcasing how less production of wastes could be achieved.
With the myriad complex environmental problems existing today, people seemed to be overwhelmed by feeling in a way that as if appropriate solutions are running out. Therefore, it is the aim of the Archival Eco-House to implement and demonstrate how environmental green living could be made possible.
The feeling of being empowered by doing something is exactly how Councilor Nestor Archival , the chair of the Cebu City Government Committee on Environment and the Eco-House owner, feels as he implements what he preaches with regards to the need for concrete implementation of environmental programs. Moreover, the Eco-House for him is more than just a concrete building as it as well tells a story about himself and his unwavering commitment for a healthier environment.
How such commitment and ideas are realized into concrete environmental strategies to practically advance nature conservation especially in the urban setting of Cebu, where majority of the cityscape has been converted into a built environment, is being demonstrated by the Archival Eco-House.
These initiatives are as being discussed fully in this site which is the result of a documentation research highlighting the Eco-House sustainable features.
