As global attention to climate change and carbon emissions increases, the Environmental Protection Charity Ltd. (EPC) actively responds to corporate social responsibility. We are pleased to announce that EPC has adopted the SGS S-Carbon comprehensive digital carbon management platform, dedicated to enhancing environmental protection and community well-being. This marks its firm commitment to achieving carbon neutrality goals.
As part of its ongoing commitment to low carbon practices, EPC organizes impactful initiatives such as waste sorting education, energy-saving activities and recycling programs, including used clothes recycling. These efforts aim to raise public awareness, foster sustainable lifestyles and beautify local communities.
Man Wong, Managing Director of Environmental Protection Charity Ltd., said “Nowadays, many stakeholders require the submission of carbon emission data. Through a systematic approach, we are able to provide accurate information to support our partners in fulfilling their ESG responsibilities and jointly promote sustainable development.”
Billy Lai, Deputy Director of Business Assurance for SGS in Hong Kong, said “By adopting the S-Carbon, which utilizes state-of-the-art technology to benchmark supplier emissions performance and monitor its supply chain, EPC elevates its carbon emissions ambitions.”
How will S-Carbon benefit EPC?
- Systematic approach: S-Carbon supports greenhouse gas (GHG) target setting, continuously tracks performance gaps, enhance data transparency for EPC, and quantifies GHG emissions from its activities, enabling informed decision-making to achieve effective carbon reduction outcomes.
- Enhance operational efficiency: The S-Carbon provides EPC with the necessary carbon emissions data to effectively improve its carbon management practices in recycling activities.
- Community education: By using S-Carbon Comprehensive Digital Carbon Management Platform within its own company, EPC can raise public awareness about the importance of data tracking and reducing carbon emissions.
In addition to its environmental efforts, EPC actively engages in charitable activities to improve the lives of underserved populations in Hong Kong. The organization’s adoption of S-Carbon illustrates how environmental and social responsibility can go hand in hand.
Climate is one of the key pillars of our IMPACT NOW for Sustainability initiative, which supports businesses in defining and achieving their climate goals with our dedicated expertise.
