苏伊士携手终结塑料垃圾联盟清除全球污染物
开展ALL_TOGETHER GLOBAL CLEANUP活动
苏伊士将于2020世界清洁日参与ALL_TOGETHER GLOBAL CLEANUP活动,在亚洲与终结塑料垃圾联盟共同庆祝这个全球共同发起的清除污染物的倡议。
作为国际终结塑料废弃物联盟的创始成员,也是泰国可持续塑料及废弃物管理公私合营项目的代表,苏伊士将积极组织东南亚及中国9,000名员工参与这次活动,履行保护海洋的承诺。
苏伊士作为塑料回收领域的领导者,每天通过收集、分类、处理和回收处理废旧塑料,赋予废旧塑料生机。在全球,苏伊士位于欧洲的9家专业工厂每年处理近40万吨废旧塑料,生产15万吨循环聚合物。在泰国,苏伊士建设的塑料回收项目,目前正在试运行。该项目是泰国最大的低密度聚乙烯(LDPE)塑料回收设施,以帮助处理其不断增加的塑料包装废弃物。
我们鼓励苏伊士的员工、合作伙伴以团体或个人的形式共同参与活动,传递全球携手清洁的决心。苏伊士亚洲固废资源管理首席执行官郭恩堂表示:“我们的行动将对致力消除地球垃圾产生积极影响。环境中的垃圾是一个全球性挑战,并需要在当地落实适切的解决方案。我们冀望在确保大家安全的前提下可以携手行动起来,减少社区垃圾。”
活动从2020年世界清洁日开始,将持续两周时间,来自联盟的志愿者、联盟成员和非成员公司的员工、世界各地的合作伙伴和人们都一起行动,消除海洋垃圾。
Litterati的开发者是联盟和即插即用孵化器项目的得奖者。它能发挥每个参与者的作用,利用人工智能技术建立数据库,分析世界各地环境中的垃圾数量和类型。参与方式:请下载Litterati(App Store/Google Play Store)并输入代码“CLEAN”。
此外,TED-Ed 还制作了关于环境垃圾的虚拟课程计划和视频,在AllTogetherCleanup.org平台上提供。
“全球垃圾规模令人望而生畏,而越来越多的人参与世界清洁日活动,表明大家都渴望尽自己的一份力量,”终结塑料垃圾联盟总裁兼首席执行官雅各布·杜尔(Jacob Duer)表示,“ALL_TOGETHER GLOBAL CLEANUP活动彰显联盟和所有成员进一步减少垃圾的决心和致力消除环境中的塑料垃圾的使命。”

SUEZ Asia joins The Alliance to End Plastic Waste in
ALL_TOGETHER GLOBAL CLEANUP effort to rid the world of litter
SUEZ Asia is partnering with the Alliance to End Plastic Waste to extend its efforts to lessen the impact of litter on the environment. In celebration of World Cleanup Day 2020, SUEZ Asia will participate in the ALL_TOGETHER GLOBAL CLEANUP, a global initiative to remove litter, one piece at a time from the environment.
As a founding member of the international Alliance to End Plastic Waste, and part of Thailand’s Public Private Partnership for Sustainable Plastic and Waste Management (PPP Plastics Thailand), SUEZ will mobilize 9,000 employees in Southeast Asia and China to support the campaign and demonstrate our commitment to protect the oceans.
As a leading player in the recycling of plastics, SUEZ deals with waste plastic every day to give it a new lease of life through collection, sorting, treatment, and recycling. On a global level, the Group processes nearly 400,000 tonnes of plastic waste across nine specialist facilities in Europe and produces 150,000 tonnes of circular polymers each year. Most recently, it has built a plastic recycling plant in Thailand that is currently under trial run. It is the largest Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) plastic recycling facility in the country to help address its rising plastic packaging waste.
“We encourage SUEZ’s employees, partners and individuals to participate and spread the word about ALL_TOGETHER GLOBAL CLEANUP. Our actions will help create positive change in the effort to rid the planet of litter,” said Antoine Grange, CEO of Recycling and Recovery, SUEZ Asia. “Litter in the environment is a global challenge with local solutions, and we’re committed to safely joining together to reduce waste in our communities.”
Beginning on World Cleanup Day 2020 and extending for the ensuing two weeks, volunteers from the Alliance, employees of participating member and non-member companies, partners and individuals around the world will rally to eliminate marine litter.
Litterati, winner of the Alliance and Plug and Play’s incubator program, developed the app to unite participants. It allows for pickup efforts to be monitored with concrete data using artificial intelligence technology to identify the litter captured in geo-tagged photos. To participate, download Litterati (App Store/Google Play Store) to enter the code “CLEAN.”
In addition, TED-Ed has created virtual lesson plans and videos about litter in the environment, available on AllTogetherCleanup.org.
“The scale of the global litter challenge can feel daunting, but growing participation in World Cleanup Day has demonstrated that individuals are eager to do their part,” said Jacob Duer, President and CEO, Alliance to End Plastic Waste. “Through the ALL_TOGETHER GLOBAL CLEANUP, the Alliance and our members are determined to further reduce litter in our mission to end plastic waste in the environment.”
Volunteers can download the Litterati app, then head out into their local community and use the camera in the Litterati app to take photos of the litter collected. |
