Climate change is an environmental issue the importance of which is highlighted by the scientific community. Human activities generate a substantial increase in the emissions of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and contribute to the disruption of the climate.

As a major economic player, we have decided to make the fight against climate change one of our principal areas of action.
To better control our impact and act responsibly, we are investing in a permanent process of evaluation and progress:

  • Internally, by controlling the impact of our business activity on the environment
  • Through the activities of our business lines
  • With respect to civil society
