This is not a domain nor topic to be brand- or market-competitive, rather, because all airlines burn fuel as a business, we should collectively tackle this issue on easing our impact on the environment.Just a bit of background to share :)John Hi David,MAS' overall marketing efforts are run by a team / division in which I belonged / was involved; an experience I am very glad to have, in pioneering the whole SM approach (Facebook, blogger engagement, employees' blog, and yes, @MAS :) The Environment team is really only the 2 of us(!), covering EU ETS, carbon credits, carbon strategies, green CSR's, etc.It is in my plan to share what the industry is doing as a whole, and what MAS is doing specifically.

I don't mean to imply that @MASenv are dodgy by comparing them to a dodgy account. It was just an example so I'm glad you're not taking it personally.I'm a big fan of what you guys are doing at MAS, whether in marketing or in the environment department. I'm also impressed that you are actively listening. I look forward to what you guys plan to do with @MASenv. All the best! Hi John!

We are still in the stages of strategising how to incorporate SM into our plans; other pending regulatory-compliance issues have been getting more attention at this stage.Whilst I also agree that such initiatives should adopt either of go-all-out or don't-at-all, this seeming half-hearted approach is my attempt to keep abreast those who are following aviation-related environment news from the account.You are right- since it is already gaining attention from SM advocates like you and your readers, it is time to do something about it - thanks for the nudge :)John Hi David,As usual, another great SM- and PR-related article.I will agree and admit that the MASenv twitter account still does not have a strong and convincing presence yet.

MAS’ overall marketing efforts are run by a team / division in which I belonged / was involved; an experience I am very glad to have, in pioneering the whole SM approach (Facebook, blogger engagement, employees’ blog, and yes, @MAS :) The Environment team is really only the 2 of us(!), covering EU ETS, carbon credits, carbon strategies, green CSR’s, etc.

It is in my plan to share what the industry is doing as a whole, and what MAS is doing specifically. This is not a domain nor topic to be brand- or market-competitive, rather, because all airlines burn fuel as a business, we should collectively tackle this issue on easing our impact on the environment.

Just a bit of background to share :)
