World Environment Day, established on June 5 every year at the 1972 United Nations Conference on Human Environment in Stockholm, Sweden, is an anniversary of the international community's commitment to joint efforts to preserve the global environment.
Huons' first week of 'Eco HUONS day' (May 19-24) was held under the theme of 'Reduce Digital Carbon Footprint'.
The digital carbon footprint refers to the amount of greenhouse gases generated when using digital devices. The Week 1 campaign focused on raising awareness of executives and employees' digital carbon footprint, noting that digital data storage and power use lead to indirect greenhouse gas emissions. Employees participated in ▲ deleting unnecessary mail according to the campaign practices ▲ emptying the computer trash ▲ lowering the brightness of the screen ▲ using PC power saving mode.
In the second week (May 26-30), carbon reduction was implemented, focusing on eco-friendly habits in daily life. Huons Group recommended using ▲ public transportation when commuting ▲ stairs instead of elevators in the office ▲ multiple containers instead of disposable products, and shared best practices through its in-house network.
Huons Group expects this campaign to spread the voluntary eco-friendly practice culture of executives and employees.
Meanwhile, Huons Group has been carrying out various environmental protection activities in connection with the local community, led by executives and employees.
In May last year, the Sunae Wetland Ecological Center in Seongnam City created biotops and removed foreign plants to preserve the native animal and plant habitat environment, and in June last year, Seongnam City Hall Square held a campaign to inform Seongnam citizens of 'the right way to dispose of waste drugs'. In September last year, a biodiversity exploration activity was conducted to identify and record various species of Namhansanseong Fortress.
"Climate change response is the responsibility of businesses and the core of sustainable management," said a Huons Global official. "Huons Group employees will continue their efforts to practice environmental protection in their daily lives and further internalize ESG awareness and mindset."."
