Biodiversity

In the course of its industrial development, PSMC continues to make efforts to protect and maintain biodiversity. In response to international concerns about biodiversity and forest conservation, PSMC have formulated the “PSMC Biodiversity Policy” to demonstrate our commitment to the conservation of the ecological environment through the monitoring and promotion of corporate sustainable governance.

Biodiversity and Non-Deforestation Commitment

PSMC is committed to maintaining biodiversity in accordance with SDG15, with ecosystem protection as the starting point, and calling on our supply chain partners to support biodiversity preservation and forest conservation to promote the well-being of mankind and the planet in response to the environmental and ecological challenges posed by climate change.

Biodiversity and Non-Deforestation Policy

• Avoid establishing or operating plants in the vicinity of areas of global biodiversity and/or of national importance
• Avoid operating related activities that could destroy protected forests and organisms
• If operational activities touch on biodiversity and ecological reserves, actions must be taken to eliminate, mitigate, offset and restore the richness and variability of biodiversity.
• According to the characteristics of the operating site and the nearby ecosystem, priority is given to measures that can help mitigate or adapt to climate change, and the introduction of biodiversity enhancement practices, as well as attention to ecological indicators monitoring and maintenance.
• Comply with international and local forest-related laws or specific regulations, and conserve forests based on the principle of zero net logging.
• Actively pursue conservation and sustainable use in response to the Convention on Biological Diversity signed by the United Nations Environment Programme
• Bringing together the upstream and downstream value chain and working with suppliers and external stakeholders to support and practice biodiversity conservation
• Actively promote the concept of biodiversity, raise public awareness of ecological conservation, and promote ecological conservation actions.
