TOSTEM Thailand Towards Sustainability and a Low-Carbon Society
In today’s world, where climate change and environmental issues are becoming increasingly severe, reducing greenhouse gas emissions has become a mission that every sector must take seriously. At TOSTEM Thailand, we are committed to operating our business with care for both society and the environment, with sustainability at the core of everything we do.
We believe that great change begins with small actions. When each of our employees makes a conscious effort to adjust their daily habits, together we can significantly reduce our Carbon Footprint. Here are some practical ways we encourage everyone to take part.
7 Simple Ways to Reduce Carbon Footprint with TOSTEM Thailand
1. Save Energy Wisely
Turning off unused lights, unplugging unnecessary devices, or setting air conditioners to the right temperature can make a huge difference. Reducing energy use by just 1 kWh lowers CO₂ emissions by 0.56 KgCO₂e.
2. Say No to Plastic Bags
Refusing a single plastic bag helps reduce waste that takes centuries to decompose, while also cutting down CO₂ emissions by 0.05 KgCO₂e. Imagine the impact if everyone joins in!
3. Proper Waste Separation
By sorting recyclable, organic, and general waste correctly, we ensure materials can be reused effectively. This practice reduces CO₂ emissions by as much as 1.5 KgCO₂e.
4. Use Water Responsibly
Water is a limited resource. Saving just one liter of water can reduce CO₂ emissions by 0.0004 KgCO₂e. Reporting leaks promptly also helps conserve water and energy.
5. Use Both Sides of Paper
Printing on both sides instead of just one maximizes the use of every sheet. For every ream of paper used on both sides, CO₂ emissions are reduced by 2.3 KgCO₂e, while also helping to save trees.
6. Commute with Company Shuttle
Choosing to travel with TOSTEM’s company shuttle service reduces the number of cars on the road, which significantly cuts emissions—by 10.18 KgCO₂e per kilometer. This is one of the most impactful actions we can take.
7. Plant Trees
Trees not only provide shade but also act as natural carbon absorbers. Planting just one tree can absorb approximately 5 KgCO₂e. It’s an investment in a greener future.
Creating Change Together
Reducing our Carbon Footprint is not just a corporate mission—it is a shared responsibility of every employee and the wider community. At TOSTEM Thailand, we invite everyone to join us in this journey, because every small step we take together leads to a greater impact for our planet.
