How can we reduce our carbon footprint?
1, actively reduce carbon emissions. We introduce several common methods: changing energy-saving light bulbs: 1 1 watt energy-saving lamps are equivalent to the illumination of 80-watt incandescent lamps, and their service life is 6 to 8 times that of incandescent lamps, which not only greatly reduces electricity consumption, but also saves more resources, saving money and protecting the environment. -26 degrees air conditioning: the air conditioning temperature is set at about 26 degrees in summer, and 18 to 20 degrees in winter is beneficial to human health and can greatly save energy. -Buy a green refrigerator with little or no freon. When discarding the old refrigerator, ask the manufacturer to help clean the freon. Choose refrigerators, air conditioners and washing machines with "energy efficiency labels", which have high energy efficiency and save electricity and money. -Buy small-displacement or hybrid cars to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. -Take part in the "Drive One Day Less" activity. -Choose public transportation to reduce the use of cars and motorcycles. -Carpooling: car sharing, sharing with friends, colleagues and neighbors, not only reduces traffic flow, but also saves gasoline, pollution and carbon footprint. -Buy local food: Nowadays, many foods are imported and exported by air. Choose local products, which is greener than air transportation. 2. Carbon compensation or carbon offset: To offset or compensate the carbon footprint that you have generated to some extent by planting trees (or entrusting a nationally recognized foundation) or other acts of absorbing carbon dioxide. Carbon footprint 3. It is not enough just to replace the equipment. At present, China only blindly updates its equipment and replaces it with energy-saving equipment. So how do you know that the so-called energy-saving equipment must be energy-saving? See the power? See the size? Nothing is like this! If you don't conduct energy efficiency tests and energy audits, how can you find that your equipment is outdated? Tsinghua Huanke Detection Technology Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Zongxing Technology, will diagnose your pulse and prescribe the right medicine for your enterprise! 4. "Carbon Footprint"-a new coordinate of enterprise environmental protection Recently, the first low-carbon eco-economic technology Expo opened in Nanchang. At this conference with the theme of "energy saving and emission reduction-green ecology", developing a low-carbon ecological economy, reducing carbon emissions of enterprises and taking "carbon footprint" as a new coordinate for enterprises to participate in environmental protection and realize social responsibility have become an important topic discussed by more than 300 guests at home and abroad. Carbon Footprint, also commonly known as "carbon consumption", refers to a newly developed indicator for measuring the environmental impact of carbon dioxide emissions generated by institutions or individuals due to daily energy consumption. As an important weapon against climate change, enterprises and individuals can understand their carbon footprints, and then control and restrain the behavior of individuals and enterprises to reduce carbon emissions. But the question is, how can an enterprise with complex organizational structure and huge institutions find a more systematic and effective way to achieve this goal? The low-carbon economy gives the answer. Low-carbon economy refers to an economic model based on low energy consumption, low pollution and low emission. Its essence is to realize the green development of enterprises through the efficient use of energy and the development of clean energy. This economic model not only means that enterprises should speed up the elimination of backward production capacity with high energy consumption and high pollution, and promote scientific and technological innovation of energy conservation and emission reduction, but also requires enterprises to set an example and guide employees and the public to reflect on bad behaviors of wasting energy and increasing pollution, so as to fully tap the great potential of energy conservation and emission reduction in industry and consumer life. At present, in the world, many well-known enterprises have taken "low-carbon economy" and "carbon footprint" as the development direction to measure corporate social responsibility, and achieved a new leap. Although these concepts have not been put forward in China for a long time, many enterprises already have ideas and ideas consistent with them. The fast elevator "Green Company Man" is a good example. In this regard, Zhu Kangzheng, president of express elevator, explained that "green company person" is a comprehensive embodiment of the environmental responsibility of express company, which has two meanings. Externally, it means that enterprises provide consumers with "energy-saving, environmental-friendly" products and efficient and convenient post-maintenance; Internally, it aims to create a green production environment within the enterprise and achieve "everyone has the concept of environmental protection and everyone participates in environmental protection". Create a green environment through the joint efforts of enterprises and employees. As the most intuitive new indicator of environmental protection, "carbon footprint" is a higher practical standard for enterprises to understand and implement circular economy, and low-carbon economy is the concrete implementation of this indicator. Only when enterprises and employees consciously undertake environmental obligations, self-discipline and control at the same time can they truly realize their commitment to consumers, the country and the whole human living environment. Taking responsibility for environmental protection is not just "carbon reduction". With the continuous improvement of enterprise's environmental awareness, more and more enterprises realize that as a basic part of the normal operation of modern social machines, enterprises have mastered various resources, especially natural resources and energy, so enterprises have the obligation and responsibility to balance social benefits while realizing economic benefits and fulfill environmental obligations through various channels. "Carbon reduction" is a step, not the only one. In this regard, Zhu Kang, president of Express Elevator Company, just explained that the fulfillment of corporate environmental responsibility is a comprehensive process. It needs to carry out this theme from internal employees to customer consumption terminals, from technology research and development to product production, from raw material procurement to supplier management. Based on its own concept of "energy saving and environmental protection" and the experience of other companies, Kuaiyi Elevator Company has formulated a comprehensive environmental protection strategy, which combines the development of the enterprise with the public interest from three aspects: product energy saving, safety and efficiency, and related industry management, and strives to better practice the goal of "enterprise social person". Green environmental protection is first embodied in the research and development of energy-saving products. Express elevator is equipped with permanent magnet synchronous gearless drive and energy regeneration technology in its residential elevator, which can save about 50% energy consumption and prevent oil from polluting the engine room and shaft environment. The configuration scheme of small machine room and no machine room adopted by SupEX series passenger elevators effectively saves the space of the machine room, effectively reduces the shared area of the owners, and further greatly reduces the energy consumption of elevator operation. Safety and high efficiency is another embodiment of the environmental responsibility of express elevator, which not only ensures the safe operation of products, but also saves energy from the perspective of efficiency. In addition to adhering to the concept of "everyone, every day, every construction site and use site are safe", enterprises also improve the use efficiency of products by increasing technology research and development and elevator operation and maintenance safety education. To this end, enterprises have held many social publicity and public welfare activities such as "safe elevator ride" education and elevator operation and maintenance safety training, which has driven more enterprises and individuals to join the concept of safe and efficient environmental protection. In addition, sharing the environmental protection concept and strengthening the environmental protection standards of related industries is another innovation of Express Elevator to the enterprise's environmental protection concept. In the view of Express Elevator, the industry is an interrelated whole, and all industries where suppliers are located are indispensable partners of Express Elevator. Express Elevator is willing to share its corporate culture, management concept and environmental protection experience with suppliers, and get mutual recognition through continuous sharing and cooperation. The head of the rapid supplier management department said: "By optimizing the supply chain management process, we push the environmental protection concept, efficient working methods and control processes to all key suppliers to help them continuously improve their products and services, ensure the profitability of the enterprise itself and the industry, and realize corporate environmental responsibility." The proposal of a series of new environmental protection concepts such as carbon footprint and low-carbon economy not only proves the increasingly serious environmental problems, but also shows that human beings are making unremitting efforts to solve environmental problems. "Every enterprise with a sense of responsibility and mission should seriously consider and act on various environmental protection policies and strategies put forward by the state." Zhu Kangzheng, president of Express Elevator, said, "Only by treating every little thing that can protect the environment with a persistent attitude can we persist in the' big thing' of protecting the earth's ecology and prolong our endless life."
