携手上海根与芽，安盛天平“绿洲计划”起航
AXA Tianping Launches “Oasis Project” with Roots & Shoots Shanghai
2023年8月31日，安盛在宁夏回族自治区灵武市白芨滩国家级自然保护区启动了其旗舰可持续发展项目——“绿洲计划”。作为国际领先的保险集团，安盛扎根中国25年，始终致力于实现绿色低碳高质量发展。此次，安盛天平携手知名公益组织上海“根与芽”，成为“百万植树计划”的一员，为恢复当地脆弱生态环境贡献力量。
安盛天平首席执行官左伟豪表示，企业的可持续发展举措有助于推动行业绿色转型，并为国家实现“双碳”目标做出贡献。此次“绿洲计划”的落地，彰显了安盛在推动行业高质量发展的同时，承担保护地球环境、守护人类共同家园的企业社会责任。
活动当天，安盛天平的志愿者代表与“根与芽”的志愿者并肩作战，为抵御沙漠化进程和气候变化筑起绿色屏障。安盛天平首席健康险业务官丁侃先生、健康险事业部总经理汪贇女士表示，环境保护，道阻且长，行之将至。作为负责任的企业，安盛将不遗余力地推动绿色发展，与客户共同守护家园。
据“绿洲计划”的项目规划，安盛天平将在指定保护区内精心种植6667株灌木，预计将在项目实施的首年内直接抵消879公斤二氧化碳排放，并将在随后的十年内，累计实现24,397公斤二氧化碳的减排目标。
安盛天平除了推出气候及新能源相关产品支持绿色金融外，还积极应对气候变化和减少碳排放。2023年6月，公司在四川13个地市实施了可再生能源项目，为近40万低收入农村家庭提供清洁、可靠、免费的能源，改善其生活环境、健康和经济状况。同年11月，推出“曙光计划”，将废旧电子设备翻新后捐赠给困境儿童，减少碳排放。今年6月，公司围绕“水健康”主题，启动了“净水守护，安盛筑爱”公益项目，为四川省凉山彝族自治州乃拖镇中心校的孩子们提供洁净饮水环境，并进行健康用水教育。
On August 31, 2023, AXA initiated its flagship sustainability program, the “Oasis Project,” in the Baijitan National Nature Reserve of Lingwu City, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. As a global leader in the insurance industry, AXA has been established in China for 25 years, dedicated to fostering green, low-carbon, and high-quality development. This initiative sees AXA Tianping collaborate with renowned non-profit organization Roots & Shoots Shanghai, joining the “Million Tree Planting Plan” to contribute to the restoration of the local fragile ecosystem.
AXA Tianping CEO Kevin Chor emphasized that corporate sustainability efforts are instrumental in driving industry green transformation and supporting China’s goal of achieving “carbon peak and carbon neutrality.” The “Oasis Project” exemplifies AXA’ commitment to protecting the environment and fulfilling its corporate social responsibility of safeguarding our shared home.
On the day of the event, volunteers from AXA Tianping and Roots & Shoots worked together to create a green barrier against desertification and climate change. AXA Tianping Chief Health Officer Fred Ding and General Manager of Health Division Angel Wang highlighted the challenges of environmental protection, but reaffirmed AXA’ dedication to advancing green development and collaborating with customers to preserve our planet.
“Oasis Project”is estimated to plant 6,667 shrubs within the designated protected area, which will offset 879 kilograms of carbon dioxide emissions within the first year of implementation and achieve a cumulative reduction target of 24,397 kilograms of carbon dioxide over the next decade.
In addition to its climate and renewable energy product offerings, AXA Tianping actively addresses climate change and reduces carbon emissions. In June 2023, the company implemented renewable energy projects in 13 cities and prefectures across Sichuan Province, providing clean, reliable, and free energy to nearly 400,000 low-income rural households, enhancing their living conditions, health, and economic well-being. In November of the same year, the company launched the “Dawn Project,” refurbishing and donating used electronic equipment to underprivileged children, thereby reducing carbon emissions. In June of this year, the company initiated the “Water Health” themed “Clean Water Protection, AXA Builds Love”public welfare project, providing clean drinking water facilities and health education to children at the center school in Naituo Township, Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province.
