HH Global’s Post

Spotlighting an interesting insight from our latest employee engagement campaign- despite a host of high integrity biodiversity and carbon sequestration projects to choose from, across all regions, our colleagues consistently voted for plastic removal from our oceans as a top concern. This insight validates the inclusion of plastic reduction as part of our Innovation with Purpose strategy. In the last two years we have worked closely with the passionate specialists at A Plastic Planet to audit our principal offices and create reduction plans as we target zero single use plastic in our offices by 2025. Based on the learnings from this campaign, HH Global will continue to champion initiatives that protect our oceans and inspire others to join us in this objective. #Sustainability #EmployeeEngagement #OceanConservation #GlobalImpact

Rejecting Single-Use Plastics: A Pledge for a Greener Tomorrow! In 2024, I'm making a vow to stand against single-use plastics, opting for sustainable choices like reusable bags and refillable water bottles. It's about reducing plastic waste and safeguarding our environment, especially our oceans. Let's lead by example, making conscious decisions for a greener future. Join me in this commitment to say no to single-use plastics, shaping a healthier, more sustainable world for generations to come.

In recognition of Plastic-Free July, a global movement promoting responsible plastic consumption, we invite you to take a proactive stance on environmental well-being. This initiative encourages us to critically evaluate our daily plastic usage and identify opportunities for reduction. By embracing reusable alternatives and fostering mindful habits, we can collectively contribute to a healthier planet. The accompanying chart provides a wealth of practical tips to curb single-use plastics. Consider it a springboard for your own personal challenge! Although we are partway through July, we encourage you to utilize the time left to join in on the Plastic-Free July challenge! Sign up for the Plastic-Free July challenge and commit to making a positive difference. Share your pledge to reduce single-use plastics. By inspiring others, we can amplify the impact of this movement. Together, let's embrace a more sustainable future!

🌍 Happy Earth Day! 🌱 This year’s theme, ‘Planet vs. Plastics,’ provides an opportunity for organizations across the globe to consider the detrimental effects of plastic pollution and the importance of investing in technologies that can reduce the use of plastic and plastic waste. At Malvern Panalytical, this is a topic we feel very passionate about. Last week we shared clips from our Plastics and Polymers Future Days episode, featuring Taco V., Floor (Florine) Aalders, Esther van den Beuken and Andrea Mizzi Brunner, who discussed poignant issues in the industry and why there are good reasons to be optimistic about a circular future for plastic ♻️ In line with our commitment to sustainability, we're proud to share our net zero journey. Our dedication to reducing our environmental footprint has led to significant changes across various aspects of our operations. These milestones signify not only our progress but also our unwavering dedication to fostering a cleaner, healthier and more productive world. However, our journey doesn't end here. As we look ahead, we will continue to innovate, collaborate, and advocate for a healthier planet. Together, we can make a difference. Let's keep working towards a future where every day is Earth Day. 🌎💚

It’s #EarthDay 🌍 – an important reminder for us to come together and take action for a healthier planet and brighter future. This year’s theme is Planet vs. Plastics. Some of the ways we’re reducing our plastic usage at the Museum include: 🖼️ Using eco-friendly, renewable or recyclable materials in our new exhibitions 🛍️ All of our new retail packaging and bags are Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) approved 🪀 We’re reducing the number of plastic toys we sell 🤝 And we’re working with suppliers committed to eco-friendly practices We’re taking things step by step and commissioning research to understand the longer-term action needed to reduce our impact on the planet. We’ll keep sharing our progress as we continue our journey to be greener 💚

At City to Sea, we’re always keen to extend our partnerships and collaborations as we know they are key to achieving our mission to preventing plastic pollution at source. So, we’re pleased to welcome Data Copy as another 1% for the Planet partner 🌍   Data Copy is an FSC® certified premium office paper with a fully recyclable, plastic-free box and ream wrapper. Here's what they had to say about choosing City to Sea:   “Plastic pollution is one of the biggest environmental challenges facing us today and we know how important it is to tackle the problem upstream and turn off the tap. That’s why we’ve partnered with City to Sea, an environmental charity on a mission to prevent plastic pollution at source, pioneers of the Refill campaign and leaders in the transition from single-use to reuse. Together we can make a difference.”   Find out more about the 1% for the Planet initiative, what it means to be a partner and other organisations and businesses onboard here:

Have you ever thought about how you could turn waste into valuable resources for your business? Are you interested in learning more about the circular economy and the benefits it can bring to your company through this innovative approach? Come to the Plastic Recycling Show Europe, the leading event in the field of plastic recycling, and discover how you can integrate sustainability into every aspect of your business!

Five years in to the Global Commitment on Plastics and there's clearer direction and understanding on what can be done and what still needs to be done to solve #plastic #waste and #pollution. #PACE and #SCALE is still the killer combo. On a personal front, me breastfeeding my children and potentially already passing on microplastics to them is a strong pain driver. On a livelihoods front, can you imagine how much we could earn together if we could solve this problem in totality? *excited* even if it is just 0.1% of the prize, it'll be huge. That's why at Circular Business Association we want to do our part to get the pace and scale of action rocketing by aligning the suppliers, vendors, solution providers and talents to meet what is needed for more companies to take the action and deliver.

🔄 Day 1 concluded at the EDANA Sustainability Forum with Session 3! 🌍 "Do plastics fit into a sustainable future?" Panelists from Plastics Europe, EuRIC - The European Recycling Industries, and Borealis — David Carroll, Emmanuel KATRAKIS, Venetia Spencer, and Gustaf Tobieson —delved into transitioning the plastics system, increasing circularity, fighting plastic waste and climate change. Stay tuned for more sustainability insights! 💚🔄 #Sustainability #Nonwovens #CircularEconomy #SustainabilityNonwovens 

Thank you Adam Auer Eric Waeyenbergh David Perkins for representing us GCCA – Global Cement and Concrete Association on the ground. Co-processing is a key lever to reduce CO2 emission, dependence on fossil fuel and beat plastic pollution at the same time.
