On March 8, 2025, OSE organized the "2025 OSE Arbor Day Event" in partnership with the Taiwan Sugar Carbon Sink Education Center to promote environmental conservation. Participants experienced the merging of environment and culture through environmental education and green experiences, which strengthened our commitment to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) actions.
We hosted this event for a total of 60 OSE employees and their families in the Taiwan Sugar Carbon Sink Education Center, which has been dedicated to promoting knowledge about carbon sequestration and enhancing public understanding of carbon neutrality and climate change. The event included guided tours to deepen participants' understanding of carbon sequestration and hands-on activities where they experienced making soil substitutes.
On the day of the event, employees and their families first took the nostalgic Taiwan Sugar Railway from the Taiwan Sugar Flower Farm Garden Center to the sugar factory, enjoying the scenic railway views along the way. Upon arrival at the Carbon Sink Education Center, lecturers explained how carbon sequestration affects global climate change and led tours of the center's exhibits, highlighting the roles of businesses and individuals in carbon reduction efforts. In the highly anticipated DIY session for creating sugarcane soil pots, participants transformed sugarcane residue into eco-friendly soil and planted green plants, learning how to reuse agricultural waste and expand their vision of resource recycling, collectively reducing their carbon footprint.
OSE aims to continuously organize diverse and educational activities that not only provide fun leisure experiences for employees and their families but also impart environmental knowledge. They can then incorporate sustainable actions into their daily lives. We also hope to collaborate more with local environmental education organizations and connect with local businesses so that all stakeholders can benefit from various forms of cooperation.
