Forest Preservation Activities
Tree-Planting Activity for Environmental Conservation
On March 11, 2022, nine employees of Fuji Electric (Zhuhai) Co., Ltd. in China participated in a tree-planting activity held by the Pingsha Town Office for environmental conservation. They worked up a sweat planting a total of 200 seedlings on Maji Mountain in the town of Pingsha. The activity reminded the participants of the grandeur of nature and the importance of protecting the environment.
"We will continue activities like these to conserve the global environment that nurtures us all."
Biodiversity Conservation Efforts
Mangrove Planting Activity
On September 17, 2022, Fuji Electric Philippines, Inc. planted 1,000 mangrove seedlings in Calatagan in the Province of Batangas, Philippines. Coastal forest rehabilitation not only helps with decarbonization, it also contributes to the livelihoods of the local residents and neighboring fishermen by protecting the water quality and mitigating flood damage. On the day, 41 of our employees participated in the tree planting activity in cooperation with fishermen, a social responsibility specialist, and external environmental protection organizations.
"We were not only able to contribute to environmental protection but also helped the community."
Marine and River Preservation Activities
Coastal Cleanup Activities to Protect Beautiful Oceans
On September 18, 2020, Fuji Electric Taiwan held a beach cleanup activity at Zhongjiao Bay, a popular tourist spot in New Taipei City, Taiwan. This was the third year for this activity, and about 45 employees, their families, and friends participated in it. While heat still lingered in the middle of September, we collected a lot of trash that washed ashore daily, such as plastic bottles and plastic waste (the work was carried out with careful infection control measures in accordance with the instructions of the local health authorities).
Marine plastic waste entering the ocean has become a global problem, having a tremendous impact on the marine ecosystem. We will continue our efforts to protect the environment through such cleanup activities.
