Since 2013, more than 300 #TencentVolunteers have helped slow the creep of the Tengger Desert in Northern China by planting thousands of native trees. Our goal is for these saplings to grow into a robust forest that stabilizes the sand and revitalizes the land. Key Achievements: · Reforested area: 4,000 acres, equivalent to over 300 football fields · Survival rate: 85% of saplings · Total plantings: 10,000 young trees This year we introduced our first parent-child tree-planting initiative, expanding our conservation efforts to encompass environmental education for youth. Now this project fights #desertification and teaches the importance of #landstewardship to the next generation too. Join us in celebrating the dedication of our volunteers and their families on #DesertificationAndDroughtDay #UNited4Land

We’re pleased to join the Green Supply Chains-Driving Decarbonization at Scale panel at London Tech Week with Diane Krisciunas of GSK, Peter VERHEIJEN of Milaha, David Palmer of Vodafone’s Pairpoint, and Naomi Weir of CBI (Confederation of British Industry). Accelerating #GreenTech innovations and strengthening international collaborations is critical in combating #ClimateChange.

We will continue to work with green pioneers — and we plan to take CarbonX global later this year. #LondonTechWeek #LTW2024 #ClimateAction #TencentImpact
