NE PLC and all those work with us are committed to operating with a proper regard to the following:Environmental impactSocial and community impactOperational health and safetyWe engange international expert who have worked with other Indonesian mining projects to advise and oversee our site management with respect to these aspects of sustainable development and good operating pactice.We are committed to leaving the mine area in good order when we finish mining, generally by re-planting rubber plantations but in some areas by applying other sustainable land management solutions. As the mine generates profits, a part of those profits will be set aside in a separate fund for this restoration work.We are conscious that the world, especially Asia, is building new coal fired power stations to provide efficient energy for tomorrow’s commercial and domestic user. Undoubtedly, this will be a challenge for controlling global carbon emissions.We believe our coal will have a smaller carbon footprint than today’s average coal used in power stations; our coal is very low in sulphar and other pollutants, we mine it open-cut (the lowest-carbon emissions method) and we aim to transport it in as low carbon emissions a way as possible. In addition, many of the power stations in India and China that we aim to be supplying are modern and use “clean coal” technologies.
