Eco living, or green clean living, involves sustainable practices that reduce environmental impact, such as using renewable energy and minimizing waste. For businesses, especially in the Asia Pacific, adopting eco living can enhance brand reputation and open new markets. This is vital as the 2025 SDG Progress Report by ESCAP indicates the region is off track, with only 14.4% progress achieved by 2023, highlighting the urgency for corporate action.
