Moreover, this expansion will continue to Visual Display products such as the back covers of televisions. To improve energy efficiency and reduction in carbon emissions, Samsung is also using a System on Chip solution which allows information to be communicated without additional devices. Most importantly, the company has extended the lifespan of the device to further minimize waste. Hence, these movements from Samsung electronics alarm people to acknowledge such severity and create a more eco-friendly world.


Many corporations should pivot their business aim towards more eco-friendly productions and educate their workers to stay aware of current situations. The company of Samsung well managed to train employees in a clear context about the global challenges. This training is essential since the workers are in better positions to think about society’s challenges. Educating people creates a strong power in a long term.
