Today, June 5, is International #WorldEnvironmentDay. 🌍🌱
On this day, various events, campaigns, and measures are being held around the world to call for ecological courage. Around 150 countries around the world take part in this day of action and try to raise awareness of the fact that it is primarily humans themselves who threaten the diversity and stability of the environment and therefore their own habitat. 🔥🌊🌪️
#ThereisnoplanetB and the protection of our environment concerns us all — both privately and professionally.❗️
We can't turn back time, but we can re-grow forests, revive water sources, prevent desertification and droughts and restore land.
At HARTING Technology Group, we are aware of our responsibility and therefore do a great deal to protect the environment and use resources responsibly.
We not only place the highest demands on our facilities, but also on our products.
We are continuously working to expand the use of renewable energies at our locations. This has enabled us to reduce our local CO₂ emissions by over 90 %, particularly at our German sites. To achieve this goal, we invested in a new biogas plant and a photovoltaic field, among other things. However, we also regularly carry out energy-efficient building renovations at other locations around the world and are expanding our purchase of renewable energy. 💨☀️🏫
When it comes to our products, we focus on a transparent carbon footprint. From the design to the material and the longest possible service life, we consider sustainability throughout the entire product life cycle. For us, it's not just about user-friendliness, but also about avoiding the use of critical raw materials and focusing on recycling. Whether it's the manufacturing process, shipping, packaging, or recycling — we reduce damage to the environment at every step. For example, we use recycled plastic for our packaging.
We are also committed to the #AllElectricSociety - a world in which all energy is generated from renewable resources and converted into electricity. 💡 With our products, we enable a sustainable future. Our connectivity solutions are used in many industries that are working towards a climate-neutral planet. Whether in wind energy, rail transport, hydrogen technology or electromobility, our products are important for sustainability and environmental protection and thus contribute to a clean future. 💪🏼
