Over the past five years, Hutchison Ports joined hands with our partners - DP World, Port of Rotterdam Authority, PSA International and Shanghai International Port Group - and their employees to demonstrate our unprecedented level of involvement towards a greener future.
To further prove our commitment to protecting the environment in which we operate, Hutchison Ports Group Environmental Committee (GEC) was officially established in July 2019, responsible for driving the implementation of a global environmental strategy for the entire group.
Go Green 2019, being the first drive after GEC’s establishment, focused on the efforts to help mitigate global deforestation. We called on our ports to organise plantation activities with our staff, families and local partners to help reduce the rate of deforestation and protect biodiversity. With the concerted effort of almost 1,100 participants from 21 of our port operations, over 4,200 trees of various species were planted inside and around the terminals.
Hutchison Ports is an industry leader and it is our responsibility to remain a frontrunner by establishing a sustainability brand for ourselves. Given the encouraging results of this year’s campaign and support from every staff member, we have every confidence that we can start to make a positive difference to the environment in which we operate.
“Together, we can make it happen.”
