Yang Ming Responds to Earth Day
Rallying Global Partners to Protect the Environment Together
Yang Ming actively supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and remains committed to marine sustainability and conservation. In celebration of Earth Day 2025, a total of 108 volunteers—including Yang Ming employees from domestic and global offices, along with supplier partners—joined forces to remove 262 kilograms of marine debris. Their collective effort in protecting the coastal environment exemplified Yang Ming’s proactive commitment to corporate sustainability and environmental stewardship.
On April 18, a beach cleanup event was held at Longdong Bay Ocean Park on Taiwan’s northern coast organized by Yang Ming’s headquarters. Employees participated enthusiastically, joined by supply chain partners including Jerami International Co., Ltd., He Fong Co., Ltd., Liandar Security Co., Ltd., Grand Ark International Co., Ltd., CPC Corporation Taiwan, Castrol Marine, Ernst & Young Global Limited, and Kuang Ming Shipping Corp. Their dedication created a positive impact, helping to restore the natural beauty of Longdong Bay—a coastline where marine debris tends to accumulate due to prevailing ocean currents. Meanwhile, on Earth Day itself, Yang Ming’s Kaohsiung Branch and YES Logistics took part in a beach cleanup at Sizihwan, organized by Taiwan International Ports Corporation, to protect Taiwan’s beautiful shoreline together. Yang Ming’s Mediterranean Regional Center and Melbourne Office have also initiated local beach or urban cleanups. Through these sustained efforts, Yang Ming not only raises awareness among its global workforce about the issue of marine debris and reinforces its corporate sustainability values, but also strives to make a sustained and cumulative impact on environmental restoration—one step at a time.
