36 Sustainability Report 2024 | Environment


Singapore


In Singapore, the team undertook several initiatives aimed at reducing the carbon footprint of operations, centered around investment and education.


Four electric vehicles were procured and incorporated into the fleet of vehicles. Meanwhile 10,283 kilograms of waste wood was sent to the Gardens by The Bay . This national garden and horticultural attraction for local and international visitors uses a Combined Heat Power steam turbine – a co-generation plant – fueled by wood and horticultural waste sourced from across Singapore.


Sensor activated lighting was also installed, ensuring lights in facilities are only on when required.


Efforts also revolved around behavior change, with the introduction of a daily “Earth Hour” where lights are switched off for an hour at lunchtime. Staff in Singapore were also encouraged to use the stairs, rather than the lift, to use new recycling bins and single-use plates and cups were scrapped from the office.


In 2024… More investment is planned in decarbonization and increased energy efficiency in Singapore. It is hoped more electric vehicles can be incorporated into vehicle fleets, while a phased switchover to LED lighting will continue.


The team is also exploring programs aimed at offsetting the carbon used in moves. We plan to continue to transition a few other vehicles to EV.
