MRV has taken a stance on climate action; over the past decade, it has planted nearly 1.5 million trees in green spaces and public areas. It aims to set an industry benchmark by prioritising people and planet, citing its large market capitalisation and expansive operations as advantages in making positive community impacts. It follows-through on a commitment to transparency, with annual reports highlighting progress towards the UN\u2019s 17 Sustainable Development Goals, focusing on the eight where it can best contribute. It established the MRV Institute 10 years ago and invests one percent of annual income to support education, culture and sports programmes.
