全球的物流公司 DHL 和德克萨斯树木会正在努力使德克萨斯州达拉斯 - 沃斯堡地区更加绿色。在地球日之前,近 100 名DHL Supply Chain 员工今天自愿植树,以支持更健康、更环保的社区。
DHL Supply Chain 向德克萨斯树木会捐赠了 11,762 美元,为该地区提供了 100棵树。这笔捐款是通过员工筹款活动和公司匹配筹集的,旨在支持城市林业并采取行动帮助缓解气候变化。
志愿者在德克萨斯州罗阿诺克的 Cannon Parkway Park 种植了 30 加仑大小的树木。当地的树木,包括Chinquapin 橡树和蒙特雷橡树,种植在人行道上,为每天享受这个公园的地区居民提供急需的遮荫。在志愿者活动中,DHLSupply Chain 员工还将 70棵较小的树种到盆中,德克萨斯树木会将继续在他们的苗圃中照料这些树,直到这些树大到可以在未来的志愿者项目中种植为止。
“在 DHL,企业责任是我们战略不可或缺的一部分,它是由我们连接人们和改善生活的核心目标驱动的,”DHL供应链美洲区人力资源副总裁 Tim Sprosty说。“对于我们的员工来说,拥有这些机会来帮助改善我们生活和工作的社区并与之建立联系非常重要。我们的志愿者工作对于为我们的员工创造良好的工作文化和环境也至关重要。作为该国的雇主之一,以及达拉斯-沃斯堡地区的雇主,我们很自豪能够支持这一努力。”
树木对每个城市的基础设施都至关重要。植树可以改善空气质量、节省能源成本、提高财产价值、减少水污染和降低水处理成本,并支持当地动物和社区居民的身心健康。
