Tetra Pak: Pioneering a sustainable future
The consequences of climate change – drought, floods, along with unreliable access to water and energy – have a destabilising impact on economies and communities around the world. Further rises in global warming could lead to increased levels of vulnerability when it comes to food security – leading to a severe risk of increased hunger across many geographies. This is a severe challenge given the expected growth of the global population to 9.1 billion – requiring an increase in food availability by 70%. Therefore, the role of food sector in tackling climate change is becoming even more imperative.
Tetra Pak – a leading food processing and packaging solutions company – has chosen to focus on a renewability- and recyclability-driven innovation pathway to ensure the de-carbonisation and circularity of materials and address the need for sustainable food packaging.

ZEISS: A company that sees beyond
Climate change and sustainability are increasingly becoming the watchwords for companies across sectors, especially in manufacture of consumer products. The public are, more and more, becoming very aware of the need for resource conservation and for companies to engage in optimisation of their processes to offset negative environmental impact. This is particularly important in industries responsible for providing the tools or equipment for others – such as technologies for the manufacturing sector – who play a crucial role for reducing the environmental footprint of our digital work and life.
ZEISS is a longstanding and sustainable presence in its industry – the company’s two founders, Carl Zeiss and Ernst Abbe, made sustainability part of the corporate identity.

Dirk Rossmann GmbH: driving the future of sustainability forward
The world’s population is growing. As of March 2020, there was an approximate global population of 7.77 billion, and this number is only expected to increase over the coming decades. However, with this population increase, the need for food, water and other resources will similarly rise to levels we have never faced before. The world is currently facing an environmental crisis, with the effects of climate change already showing an irrevocable impact. Trading companies and their customers have a very special responsibility towards the climate change. People buy millions of products in stores every day. In order to solve complex sustainability challenges, it is therefore essential that retail companies offer customers finished products to solve these challenges. Customers must be empowered to integrate sustainability into their everyday life. As a result, any conversation about how to effectively provide new products for a growing population must factor in sustainability to keep from causing further damage.
With it´s longstanding and sustainable presence across the retail and food sectors, owing to its status as one of the largest drug store chains in Germany and beyond, the Dirk Rossmann GmbH integrates sustainable management into the corporate culture for almost 50 years.

Investors are aiming to generate a positive investment outcome and impact, alongside managing financial risks and returns.

Additionally, awareness of the need for greater sources of clean food and water is only growing, along with the demand for sustainable mobility and higher energy efficiency. As a result, if a more positive and sustainable future is to become a reality, new methods and technologies must be developed in the pursuit of such considerations.

City Developments Limited: Building a Resilient Future
The effects of the Covid-19 pandemic have been immediate, shocking, and sobering, and the world must evolve. Beyond accepting our place in the new world we find ourselves in, we must make active changes, whilst adapting and embracing the future, according to City Developments Limited’s (CDL) Group CEO, Mr Sherman Kwek.
“This is a timely reminder to all companies that we can be easily devastated by pandemics, and natural disasters,” emphasised Mr Kwek, who not only acknowledges the challenges the world faces but also eyes the unique opportunity businesses are in to inspire a global reset. “We only have one planet, and it is our duty and responsibility to take care of it.”
By 2050, global urban populations are projected to increase by 70%, and for Mr Kwek and his team at CDL, they believe how the building and construction sector adapts to this growing need for real estate development will be crucial in the fight against climate change.
The transition towards a low-carbon future is inevitable and because of this, CDL is focussing on conservation during construction and ensuring that older buildings are updated and enhanced to meet modern standards.
Not only has CDL been regionally recognised as a property pioneer since 1963, but it is also known as the top-ranking real estate company in the list of 100 sustainable businesses worldwide.
Sustainability is a core function of CDL, and the company has been taking the lead in advocating climate action and sustainable development in Singapore and beyond. The three national platforms it set up over the last decade have helped engage and build a larger ecosystem for positive change: The Singapore Sustainability Academy, a dedicated space designed for capacity building and collaboration for green building and sustainability practices with the focus on training sustainable energy professionals and experts throughout the region, in partnership with the Sustainable Energy Association Singapore; The CDL Green Gallery@Singapore Botanic Gardens, a zero-energy gallery that inspires Singaporeans and foreign visitors through exhibitions on the diverse subjects of climate, biodiversity, and botany-related artworks; and My Tree House, a green library built to nurture children from 3 to 12 years old to be eco-champions of tomorrow.
Innovation has been the top Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance priority for CDL for many years and the company believes in collaborations which amplify ideas for a positive impact. Since 2016, two Research & Development (R&D) labs on smart green home features and tropical technologies were set up in partnership with the National University of Singapore. This partnership has covered exciting R&D on new generations of solar technology, building materials and anti-bacterial solutions. In 2019, CDL also set up an incubator, in partnership with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the Singapore Centre for Social Enterprise, supporting young start-ups with innovative solutions to serve any of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.
“If we can truly adopt a collaborative spirit and effort, we can find solutions to help the world recover better, greener and more sustainably,” says Ms Esther An, CDL’s Chief Sustainability Officer. “Everyone can make a difference and together, we will be able to contribute to a more sustainable world for many generations to come.”
