CLIMATE CHANGE AND AIR QUALITY

THIS IS HOW WE MANAGE IT

 

We develop projects with energy efficiency standards to promote low-carbon and climate-resilient infrastructure.

  • Low-carbon infrastructure: we develop projects with energy and process efficiency standards to prevent greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
  • We offset our emissions with projects that protect strategic ecosystems and increase territorial resilience to climate change.
  • We adapt to the effects of climate change by analyzing the vulnerability of our roads and airports with a risk management approach to ensure business continuity.
  • We promote communication and training initiatives for our employees and stakeholders, in order to increase awareness and collective action surrounding climate change management.
  • Our commitment to prevent, mitigate and adapt to climate change includes strict sustainability requirements for our operations that go beyond meeting legal standards.
  • We focus our management and commitments on respecting a range of human rights, including those related to life, water and sanitation, food, health, housing, self-determination, culture and development.
