Since the operation of Macau International Airport (MIA), number of passengers keeps growing. Apart from upholding the objective of the airport “Safety, Efficiency, Effectiveness”, MIA is also committed to promote environment protection, striving for Macau International Airport Co. Ltd. (CAM)’s vision to be a green airport. In 2014, CAM as always participated in a series of activities in the “Macau Energy Conservation Week” held by the Office for the Development of the Energy Sector (GDSE). First of all, CAM switches off unnecessary lighting and adjusts the temperature of air-conditioners to 25℃or above, which is carried out in continuation. Then on 16thJune 2014CAM took part in “Lights Off for 1 Hour” by switching off the spot lights of outdoor car park, the exit and entrance light boxes signage and one passenger lift. Last but not the least, our staffs are encouraged to participate “Casual Wear in Summer” by wearing casual and light clothing to work from 17thJune to 31st August 2014whenthey do not have meetings or company events.Mr. Sandro Kou, Acting Director of Infrastructure Development Department, helped GDSE to shoot in an “Energy Saving Promotion” video to introduce to the public about energy conservation.
These activities not only can achieve emission reduction and energy conservation, but can also help us develop good habits to avoid resourceswastage and preserve the environment. As MIA is Macau’s international transport hub, CAM is taking the responsibility to spread the idea of environmental protection to different entities in the airport and to the society, contributing to develop Macau into a sustainable green city.
