On 12 February, Ms. Gloyta Nathalang, Senior Executive Vice President, Sustainability Management and Corporate Communications, addressed "BCG for Climate Action: Scaling Solutions for a Sustainable Future." She emphasized the BCG Economy as a strategy to balance economic growth with environmental sustainability, drawing on the European Green Deal as a model focusing on waste reduction, renewable energy promotion, and bio-based materials which contribute to reducing carbon emissions while driving economic growth. For Thailand, with its strong agricultural and clean energy sectors, industries, particularly SMEs, can leverage the BCG Economy for sustainable growth. Practical applications include converting agricultural waste into bio-packaging, adopting circular economy principles to minimize waste, and utilizing renewable energy to reduce costs and emissions.
Ms. Gloyta also invited all sectors to participate in low-carbon economic initiatives through BCG model, such as selling used cooking oil for SAF production through the "Fry to Fly" program and joining the Carbon Markets Club free of charge to assess carbon footprints at both organizational and individual levels.
