Greetings,
Some good news from the east, South Korean giant
Samsung Electronics has just committed to investing $4Bn to reducing carbon emissions from its manufacturing plants, with the aim of reducing their carbon emissions by 50% by 2013.
This announcement follows on from a statement released by the South Korean government about their $84Bn
Green Action Plan. This scheme is aiming to make improvements across the entire national infrastructure including manufacturing, transportation, construction & technology.
It's very reassuring to see one of the
world's top ten carbon producers making such a commitment to reduce their emissions.
Onwards & upwards!
Lucy.
