Climate change impacts the future of the planet.
As a company with sustainability at the core of its business, EcoRodovias Group recognizes the imperative to implement actions that mitigate long-term impacts on society.
In order to manage all aspects related to this topic, we established, in 2024, a Climate Strategy plan supported by five drivers that guide all actions and investments toward the goals defined in our 2030 ESG Agenda.
Carbon footprint
- GHG inventory for scopes 1, 2, and 3 audited by an independent third party in accordance with the GHG Protocol.
- Analysis of the BAU (business as usual) scenario.
