CEMEX: Future in Action Strategy
Last year, the company announced its Future in Action strategy, according to which CEMEX has set its own global target for reducing carbon emissions - by 40% by 2030 (compared to 1990 emission levels), while declaring a 5-year faster achievement of the previously established 35% reduction target, as early as 2025. In Europe, CEMEX boasts the achievement of the aforementioned target as early as 2020, so European plants plan to reduce emissions by as much as 55% by 2030, thus referring to the European Union's new carbon reduction strategy.
