Climate Action
We know that climate change affects all countries in the world, producing a negative impact on their economy, people’s lives and communities. In the future, it is expected that the consequences will be even worse. Climate patterns are changing, which affects temperature, sea level and acidification and the diversity of species. Unless we take urgent action, the consequences in the future could be catastrophic.
The importance of acting against climate change
The price to pay to adopt urgent measures that enable climate change to be slowed down may appear to be high. However, failure to invest in this type of actions would prevent adaptation to the changes derived from climate change and even generate new jobs, which would lead to a better quality of life and prosperity for people.
There are solutions within our reach so that all countries can develop sustainable and environmentally friendly economic activity: renewable energies, responsible consumption… there remains a lot to be done
Corporate responsibility
