They support lower reliance on conventional energy sources, increased adoption of renewable energy, and improved resource efficiency across hospital operations.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nThis approach helps translate the Group\u2019s\u00a0climate ambition\u00a0into\u00a0operational action, while creating a practical pathway for medium- and long-term carbon reduction.\r\n\r\nAdvancing Low-Carbon Operations for Sustainable Growth<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nThe establishment of both long-term and medium-term targets reflects the Group\u2019s commitment to managing climate-related issues in a serious and structured manner. Rather than relying solely on high-level commitments, the Group is translating its climate goals into measurable targets that can be\u00a0monitored\u00a0and evaluated over time.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nThe Group will continue strengthening its energy management and emissions reduction measures to support sustainable growth in the healthcare sector amid the challenges of climate change.<\/span>","protected":false},"parent":2789,"menu_order":1,"template":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vichaivej.com\/sustainability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/environmental\/2706"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vichaivej.com\/sustainability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/environmental"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vichaivej.com\/sustainability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/environmental"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.vichaivej.com\/sustainability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/environmental\/2706\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3244,"href":"https:\/\/www.vichaivej.com\/sustainability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/environmental\/2706\/revisions\/3244"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vichaivej.com\/sustainability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/environmental\/2789"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vichaivej.com\/sustainability\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2706"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
