CarbonCare InnoLab’s Board Director Ir. Lee Chi Ming gratified that all applicants achieved the third or fourth level of CarbonCare® ESG Label, reflecting the continuous improvement in ESG disclosure. As the Secretary-General of UN Climate Change Conference (COP 27) pointed out that the implementation of carbon reduction plans must be detailed, specific, accountable and transparent; he also emphasised that business should hold "a zero-tolerance attitude towards net-zero greenwashing (Greenwashing)". The CarbonCare® ESG Label’s criteria will constantly improve and reflect the latest international trends, the performance of regulatory agencies and respond to social expectations.
CarbonCare InnoLab’s Programme Advisor Mr. Ringo Mak said the COP 27 confirmed the responsibility of cities in addressing climate change. As a developed city, Hong Kong must reduce carbon emissions substantially in the short term in accordance with international standards. The business community is at the heart of the fight against climate change and they can foster innovation and solutions to prevent future climate disasters and ensure climate justice transition. The involvement of the business community is essential to a successful climate action.
