Environmental sustainability requires balance between development and the environment, is the key towards efficient resource management. This paper examines a Higher Education Institution through Cleaner Production Assessment, to look for viable and economic options through which the institution can enhance its environmental performance thereby can generate resources’ savings; utilizes solid waste and increase worker’s productivity. Cleaner Production assessment was successfully conducted to come up with a program for efficient cost reduction measures for water, energy and solid waste generations. The study revealed that, through Cleaner Production, about 8% monthly energy savings is expected by shutting down Air-con appliances one hour per day. Eighty percent is saved on the computer’s monthly energy consumption when laptop computers are used instead of desktops. A savings of 28% on monthly water consumption if rainwater will be utilize. Monthly financial savings of not less than 180,000 pesos is expected to be can be attained under a sustained CP program. More than 50% of solid waste, if diverted for processing, can produce at least 35,000 annually to the institutions.
