Diversified mining company Anglo American has outlined an innovative approach to three major areas of sustainability – the environment, community development, and driving greater trust and transparency across the mining industry.
Its ambitious goals include: Creating five jobs off-site for every job on-site in its host communities; Working with government to ensure every school in host communities performs amongst the top 20% of state schools in the country; Reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 30%; Improving energy efficiency by 30%; and Reducing freshwater abstraction by 50% in water-scarce regions. “Delivering on these commitments will transform the way Anglo American does business,” said Anglo American CEO Mark Cutifani. |
