MANILA, Philippines - No matter how many times they play Superman or Wonder Woman, celebrities are all human in real life. But with their latest efforts in promoting the green movement, these stars may have more than just glitz and glamour up their sleeve.
Multi-million dollar home furnishings are not surprising sights inside a celebrity home. But what’s even more impressive is the way they have incorporated eco-friendly features into their plush abodes. For instance, Oscar nominees Cate Blanchett and Brad Pitt both own solar-powered homes, which reflect their environmental concern. Meanwhile, British heartthrob Orlando Bloom is even planning to build a 100% environment-friendly house outside of London.
Jennylle Tupaz, division manager for project development of Alveo Land notes that the number of high-profile actors and actresses who now own green homes has helped jumpstart the worldwide trend for eco-friendly homes. “Gone are the days when the perfect residential space meant an excellent location and fine furnishings,” says Tupaz.
