The environmental problem of climate change has quickly risen to the top of public and political agendas around the world. As global warming becomes an increasingly noticeable threat, taking action against it has become a key priority for companies.

At ACCIONA, we are aware that people are becoming more concerned about the current model of production and consumption. As a concerned corporate citizen we seek to lead changes towards sustainable development.

We firmly believe in the need to assume the three basic pillars of sustainability – generating economic prosperity, making environmental improvements and showing responsibility towards society – as goals of our activities, and have included these in our mission. We believe that the most effective way of putting these principles into practice is to incorporate sustainable development as a core feature of business – and as a valuable long term investment – in both our strategy and operations.

We implement these principles around two axes:

• Eco-efficiency and the effect on climate change.
• Social development, promoted through specific projects and initiatives from the various areas of business.
