Corporate Social Responsibility – Environment<\/p><\/h1><\/div>

Underlying all of Erongo RED\u2019s policies and practices is our accountability towards the communities in which we operate.

\n<\/strong>Another primary focus of Erongo RED\u2019s corporate social responsibility is the environment. Businesses regardless of size have a large carbon footprint. Any steps they can take to reduce those footprints are step in the right direction for the company and society as a whole. Erongo RED recognizes the importance of preserving the natural environment that sustains all life on the earth for future generations and thereby ensuring that all humanity can attain a healthy and enriched life. We do this by participating in cleaning campaigns of our towns, beaches and any other surroundings. Participate and sponsor environmental awareness campaigns (e.g. cleaning up of streets, parks and beach and support conservation initiatives and programmes. Green Initiative \u2013 Erongo RED will always strive to take into consideration the environmental impact during planning, design and implementation of any project. E.g. \u2018Clean up\u2019 campaigns and community assistance during droughts.<\/p>\n

During the period under review, Erongo RED sponsored community related activities worth over N$0.5 million.
