As good corporate citizens, ‘better’ has many dimensions for us. It is about sustainability and safeguarding our planet for future generations, but it is also about health and working conditions, about protecting, and supporting the communities we live, work and operate in, and about finding smarter, less wasteful, more efficient ways of doing things.
This means driving change within our own business every day, but it also means effecting positive change in the world – through our role as influencers and leaders, as customers and technology suppliers. We can contribute towards a better world, so we will. Because it is the right thing to do.
We identified the impact of greenhouse gases (through our supply chain, our customers, and our own internal use) as a risk to the environment, which is why in 2022, we want to start being held accountable against our ambitions, as we sign up to the Science-Based Target Initiative (SBTi) to set emissions reduction and net zero targets at the level needed to protect the planet from catastrophe.

This means we will have green electricity supporting our facility in India. This is another small step to make our operations more sustainable.
CHINA MILK RUN
The trudge of bag of milk is coming as scheduled in Changzhou, China, which is a platform for the public to donate milk for those families who cannot afford milk.
