蘇伊士攜手終結(jié)塑料垃圾聯(lián)盟清除全球污染物
開展ALL_TOGETHER GLOBAL CLEANUP活動
蘇伊士將于2020世界清潔日參與ALL_TOGETHER GLOBAL CLEANUP活動，在亞洲與終結(jié)塑料垃圾聯(lián)盟共同慶祝這個全球共同發(fā)起的清除污染物的倡議。
作為國際終結(jié)塑料廢棄物聯(lián)盟的創(chuàng)始成員，也是泰國可持續(xù)塑料及廢棄物管理公私合營項目的代表，蘇伊士將積極組織東南亞及中國9,000名員工參與這次活動，履行保護海洋的承諾。
蘇伊士作為塑料回收領(lǐng)域的領(lǐng)導者，每天通過收集、分類、處理和回收處理廢舊塑料，賦予廢舊塑料生機。在全球，蘇伊士位于歐洲的9家專業(yè)工廠每年處理近40萬噸廢舊塑料，生產(chǎn)15萬噸循環(huán)聚合物。在泰國，蘇伊士建設(shè)的塑料回收項目，目前正在試運行。該項目是泰國最大的低密度聚乙烯（LDPE）塑料回收設(shè)施，以幫助處理其不斷增加的塑料包裝廢棄物。
我們鼓勵蘇伊士的員工、合作伙伴以團體或個人的形式共同參與活動，傳遞全球攜手清潔的決心。蘇伊士亞洲固廢資源管理首席執(zhí)行官郭恩堂表示：“我們的行動將對致力消除地球垃圾產(chǎn)生積極影響。環(huán)境中的垃圾是一個全球性挑戰(zhàn)，并需要在當?shù)芈鋵嵾m切的解決方案。我們冀望在確保大家安全的前提下可以攜手行動起來，減少社區(qū)垃圾。”
活動從2020年世界清潔日開始，將持續(xù)兩周時間，來自聯(lián)盟的志愿者、聯(lián)盟成員和非成員公司的員工、世界各地的合作伙伴和人們都一起行動，消除海洋垃圾。
Litterati的開發(fā)者是聯(lián)盟和即插即用孵化器項目的得獎者。它能發(fā)揮每個參與者的作用，利用人工智能技術(shù)建立數(shù)據(jù)庫，分析世界各地環(huán)境中的垃圾數(shù)量和類型。參與方式：請下載Litterati（App Store/Google Play Store）并輸入代碼“CLEAN”。
此外，TED-Ed 還制作了關(guān)于環(huán)境垃圾的虛擬課程計劃和視頻，在AllTogetherCleanup.org平臺上提供。
“全球垃圾規(guī)模令人望而生畏，而越來越多的人參與世界清潔日活動，表明大家都渴望盡自己的一份力量，”終結(jié)塑料垃圾聯(lián)盟總裁兼首席執(zhí)行官雅各布·杜爾（Jacob Duer）表示，“ALL_TOGETHER GLOBAL CLEANUP活動彰顯聯(lián)盟和所有成員進一步減少垃圾的決心和致力消除環(huán)境中的塑料垃圾的使命。”
蘇伊士在亞洲
蘇伊士在早于60年前就進入東南亞，繼而擴展至大中華區(qū)的發(fā)展也逾40年。蘇伊士現(xiàn)已成為各大城市和工商客戶的首選合作伙伴，提供的水務和固廢管理解決方案，能助其優(yōu)化資源管理，提升其環(huán)境和經(jīng)濟效益并符合監(jiān)管標準。集團旗下逾9,000名員工遍布亞洲各地，合作項目逾70個，至今已建造了460多座水處理廠和污水處理廠并向逾3,200萬人口提供水務和固廢資源管理服務。蘇伊士被公認為最具影響力的企業(yè)之一，也是環(huán)境服務行業(yè)的標桿企業(yè)。目前蘇伊士在澳門運營著中國水務行業(yè)的第一個PPP項目，在上海運營著亞洲其中一座最大的危廢處置設(shè)施，同時在泰國也運營著塑料回收再造項目。作為香港固廢處理行業(yè)的領(lǐng)導者，蘇伊士集團還為亞洲20個工園區(qū)提供專業(yè)的環(huán)境管理服務。
關(guān)于終結(jié)塑料垃圾聯(lián)盟
終結(jié)塑料垃圾聯(lián)盟是一個國際性非營利組織，與世界各地政府、環(huán)境和經(jīng)濟發(fā)展非政府組織和社區(qū)合作，以應對在環(huán)境中消除塑料廢棄物的挑戰(zhàn)。通過項目和伙伴關(guān)系，聯(lián)盟專注于四個戰(zhàn)略領(lǐng)域的解決方案：基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施、創(chuàng)新、教育融入以及清潔。截至2020年8月，聯(lián)盟擁有來自塑料價值鏈的全球公司和組織近50家成員公司和支持者。更多詳情，請訪問： www.endplasticwaste.org
關(guān)于Litterati
Litterati 的主要任務是消除垃圾。遍布165個國家，Litterati社群識別、定點并收集垃圾，進而建立了一個同類最大的開放式垃圾數(shù)據(jù)庫。他們得到了國家科學基金會的支持，并在TED上得到了廣泛關(guān)注。
關(guān)于TED-Ed
TED-Ed 是TED青少年與教育分支。TED Ed的使命是激發(fā)并鼓勵世界各地教師和學生的靈感迸發(fā)。我們所做的一切都支持學習——從制作不斷增長的原創(chuàng)動畫視頻庫，到為教師提供一個創(chuàng)建自己互動課程的國際平臺，到幫助全球各地好奇的學生將TED帶到他們的學校并獲得演講技能，再到慶祝內(nèi)部的創(chuàng)新領(lǐng)導力，TED Ed擁有超過60萬名教師的全球網(wǎng)絡資源。TED Ed已經(jīng)從一個熱點話題傳播形式發(fā)展成為一個知名的教育平臺，每周為全球數(shù)百萬師生提供服務。

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. |
