Taking a step forward to achieve sustainability goals, Cathay Pacific has released its 2022 Sustainable Development Report that details the Group’s commitment and progress towards achieving sustainability goals.
“As we enter an exciting new phase of rebuilding Cathay Pacific for Hong Kong, one of our key development areas is becoming a leader in sustainability,” said Ronald Lam, CEO, Cathay Pacific Group. “This means working together with many different stakeholders, partners and corporate customers to reconnect Hong Kong to the world in sustainable ways. The title of this year’s report, ‘Greener Together’, reflects our determination to foster stronger partnerships to help drive the sustainable development agenda and build a more sustainable future for our customers, our people and our communities.”
The report highlights various sustainability initiatives taken by the Group like developing the Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) supply chain, reducing single-use plastics in the operations and continuing to advance the agenda of wellness and diversity for our people.
The Group launched Asia’s first major Corporate SAF programme, extended the carbon-offset programme to its cargo branch and reached a 56% reduction of single-use plastics use on a per passenger level as compared to 2018 baseline.
