Continue to organise forums with residents’ associations and the
public to create awareness of Environmental Impact Assessments
(EIAs) and to address Electro-Magnetic Frequency (EMF) concerns.
y
Carbon offset projects (e.g. tree planting).*
* Going forward, we shall engage our staff in offsetting carbon emissions, based on contributions of each
division. A carbon offset is a reduction in emissions of carbon dioxide or greenhouse gases made in order
to compensate for or to offset an emission made elsewhere. It is a practical and effective way to address
climate change and contribute to sustainable development.
We understand that in the short and medium term we are not able to achieve net-zero aspiration through
the renewable energy solutions that we are deploying. We, therefore, plan to carry out a tree growing as
part of our offset programme. We will also explore other offset programmes and deploy as appropriately.
