ESG in action, protecting our oceans!
AcBel has been supporting the Ministry of Environment’s beach adoption program since 2020. We adopted 600 meters of coastline of Zhuzi Bay Beach, located near our factory in Tamsui, and organize beach clean-up activity every year. We encourage more employees to engage in sustainable actions and care for our local environment and ecology. We will continue to take action to care for our local environment and ecology.
The Corporate Sustainable Development Office organized the "2023 and Zhuzi Bay Beach Cleaning Activity" on August 11 and 18 respectively. A total of 45 employees participated in the two events.
A total of about 628 KG of marine debris were removed, including 430 KG of polystyrene and plastic composites, 119 KG of general garbage, 37 KG of plastic bottles, 16 KG of abandoned fishing gear, and 13 KG of aluminum cans and glass products. Among them, there are many wastes from the other side, which shows that human activities are increasingly polluting the marine environment. What is even more frightening is that these wastes may also return to the sea through the food chain and cause irreversible health hazards in people's bodies.
Beach cleaning has become one of the most popular sustainable activities for AcBel’s employees. Protecting the global environment is our commitment and responsibility. While pursuing profits in corporate operations, we will not forget to invest more resources, lead employees to engage in various social care and environmental protection actions, expand our influence, and strive to achieve a green future.
