| The management of greenhouse gas emission is not only a global issue but also a challenge for the petrochemical industry. By upholding the concept of "cherishing the resources of the earth and fulfilling the responsibilities of environmental protection”, TSRC has made unremitting efforts for energy saving, resources & raw materials recycling, and producing efficiency improving since its foundation in 1973. To cooperate with the promotion of greenhouse gas reduction plans by competent authorities, TSRC has taken the following measures: |
| (1) |
Under the authorization of Economic Ministry, Taiwan Green Productivity Foundation has verified that TSRC has reduced 37,520 tons of CO2 equivalent emission through its adoption of “Voluntary Energy Conservation and Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction” during 2004~2008. |
| (2) |
In order to reach the goal of voluntary greenhouse gas emission reduction, TSRC has signed the “Agreement on Voluntary Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction” with the Economic Ministry in 2010. It is expected that TSRC can reduce another 4,022 tons of CO2 equivalent emission during 2011~ 2015. |
| (3) |
TSRC plans to obtain the ISO 14064-1 certificate of greenhouse gas for its Kaohsiung and Gangshan plants in 2011 to serve as a reference for the follow-up greenhouse gas emission reductions. |
