世界上最大的珠宝商现在只采购再生金属。 The World’s Biggest Jeweler Now Only Sources Recycled Metals.
潘多拉 (Pandora) 是全球销量最大的珠宝公司，目前为其系列产品专门采购 100% 回收的银和金。 Pandora, the world's largest jewelry company by volume, is now exclusively sourcing 100% recycled silver and gold for its collections. 此举旨在减少公司的环境足迹，并为其他公司树立榜样。 This move aims to reduce the company's environmental footprint and serves as an example for others. 通过利用以前开采的金属，潘多拉可以显着减少温室气体排放，因为采矿比回收需要更多的能源和资源，而回收是汞污染的主要来源。 By utilizing previously mined metals, Pandora can significantly decrease its greenhouse gas emissions as mining requires more energy and resources than recycling, which is a major source of mercury pollution. 根据世界黄金协会和其他来源的数据，与采矿相比，回收黄金和白银的排放量分别减少了约 99% 和 66%。 Recycling gold and silver reduces emissions by approximately 99% and 66% compared to mining, respectively, according to data from the World Gold Council and other sources. 该公司每年在这一转变上投资约 1000 万美元，吸收成本，而不是通过涨价将成本转嫁给消费者。 The company is investing around $10 million annually into the switch, absorbing the costs rather than passing them onto consumers through price hikes. 为了降低与回收金属相关的风险，潘多拉使用责任珠宝业委员会制定的监管链标准，并要求独立审计师根据该标准对其供应商进行评估。 To mitigate risks associated with recycled metals, Pandora uses a chain of custody standard developed by the Responsible Jewellery Council and requires its suppliers to be assessed against this standard by independent auditors. 这一变化帮助 Pandora 每年减少约 58,000 吨间接二氧化碳排放。 This change has helped Pandora reduce its indirect CO2 emissions by approximately 58,000 tonnes annually.
