01-04-2014 03:00 HKT
“Earth Hour” was introduced by World Wild Fund to encourage governmental organizations, business corporations and citizens worldwide to switch off lights for an hour usually on the last Saturday in March every year to cope with the issue of climate change. Last year, a total of 152 countries with more than 7,000 cities participated the “Earth Hour 2013” in order to promote the sustainable development of the Earth.
Cinda International values environmental conservation seriously and continue to participate the event this year. We have switched off the lights in the office during 8:30 – 9:30 p.m. on Saturday, 29 March 2014 and encouraged our staff to support this meaningful event by switching off the lights at home during the specified time and called on its staff to conserve the resources and to give something up from four ways “Clothing, Food, Housing & Transportation” to reduce their ecological footprint in daily life.
Moreover, to encourage the staff’s participation for “Earth Hour”, Cinda International organized an Earth “Dress Black Day” on 28 March 2014 (the day before Earth Hour) and encouraged its staff to dress in black or dark colours. This event was greatly supported by the management and staff. Everyone demonstrated the spirit of environmental protection and the participants showed unity of strength within the Company. Under a cheerful atmosphere, a group photo was taken to commemorate this event.
To put forward the environment conservation, Cinda International would take various measures to reduce energy consumption and emission of carbon dioxide in order to be a responsible corporation.
