My Sustainability Goals for 2024:

Since last year it has been really positive to see the actions the government have taken with regards to creating policies to reduce the use of HFCs and HCFCs in Hong Kong by ~80% by 2030. It is now up to businesses to prepare for those policies being enacted from 2025 onwards.

As such, my primary sustainability goal for the coming year is to help businesses with large refrigeration or air-conditioning requirements plan for the upcoming phase down. My goal is to partner with businesses to ensure their transition to a low-carbon operating environment is done correctly, to ensure sustainable operating success both from a carbon neutrality and cost point of view.
