Tesco Environmental management

[warriorwitch]

Here is something that you might want to look at and make comments on.

Tesco
Corporate Responsibility contacts Environment
We believe in sustainable growth - it is responsible, it is what our customers want and it makes good business sense. If we take decisions that are unsustainable, we may harm the world we all live in. Similarly, if we fail to minimise our environmental impacts, we will be inefficient and increase our costs

Environmental management
Tesco integrates the management of environmental, as well as social and ethical, issues into our steering wheel

Resources
We are committed to the efficient use of resources, reducing energy, water and refrigerent use and testing renewables



Emissions
We are reducing emissions from our transport distribution fleet, testing rail distribution and promoting biofuels

Waste & recycling
We are committed to minimising waste and helping our customers recycle more



Our products
We are constantly working with our suppliers to ensure that we give our customers high quality, competitively priced products that are produced to the high environmental and welfare standards they demand

I heard on the news last night that they have started to put Solar panels onto the roofs and they have reduced the amount of lights that they have on in the stores~ Its a start, now the rest should follow~

[warriorwitch]

14 big companies including Tesco, Shell and Voda Phone are lobbying the government to get get tough on Global warming and offering suggestions as to how it should be done.
One can only hope that they have seen the light and are genuinely on this. They must know Thet environmental disaster is not good for anyone.

Yet they cut down loads of ancient woodland to build a new super store!!!
Go figure!

They say that they are moving forward with new policies i suppose we have to wait and see what they do.

I am extremely sceptical in matters such as this. At the end of the day these big corporations are out to make money and that is where it ends. If they were REALLY that bothered about the environment then they wouldn't desecrate ancient forrests to build new superstores - end of!
I won't be holding my breath.

I remain skeptical to but even these money driven companies have to realise that ecological disaster will hit their profits, also although many of the greener technology will cost them initially, but will eventually save money in the long run, also when the government dose eventually stamp on the on polluters they will be ahead of the game and look good in the eyes of the shoppers.
