Climate change is our world’s
biggest problem
Scientific evidence has shown that climate change is a real and present danger, not only for the environment, but for the existence of humanity itself. After all, we live on this planet and there is no plan B.
Our footprint on the planet: a shared responsibility
In addition, human beings are the source of the problem. With our industrial and economic activity, and even with our leisure time, we are having a negative impact all over the world.
Everywhere on the planet is being affected, some places worse than others. However, to a greater or lesser extent, all countries are suffering the consequences of global warming.


Economic and migratory consequences of climate change
And it’s not just a few thousand displaced people: we’re talking about millions! According to data from the UNHCR, the UN refugee agency, in 2022 there were almost “32 million displacements caused by meteorological risks”.
Global warming also has other consequences. In fact, climate change is known as a “threat multiplier”, which means it amplifies the impact of other factors, such as poverty and violent conflict.
The solution to climate change lies with human beings
Some groups claim the climate change currently going on has a natural origin because over the past 800,000 years, there have been eight cycles of ice ages and warmer periods. The last of these occurred 12,000 years ago and marked the beginning of the modern climatic era. But this has nothing to do with what we are experiencing today

Decarbonisation of the economy is a global strategy to tackle climate change
The economy as we have known it until now must change. We must incorporate the value of “sustainability” into every social and business equation, and we cannot call an activity successful if it produces a non-neutral carbon footprint.

Today’s challenge is to adapt and transform all our activities

Decarbonisation is also an opportunity for businesses
Decarbonisation is an opportunity both for society and the businesses that implement it. Not only does it help mitigate climate change, it also helps reduce costs and improve an organisations’ prestige and brand image.
Economic benefits of renewable energy
The transition to renewable energy sources is not only beneficial for the environment, it also brings significant financial advantages. By taking advantage of cheaper energy, such as solar or wind power, companies can significantly reduce their energy costs. Implementing these energies also usually requires optimising facilities and processes, which in turn improves energy efficiency and generates additional savings.
Decarbonisation: the driving force of innovation and reputation
The European CO2 Foundation (ECO2F) was set up to accelerate decarbonisation

Social recognition and publicity for good practices
The Foundation also publicises the best practices of organisations that have earned its recognition, so that these exemplary cases can inspire other organisations to take the same path. Because the more that act to achieve their energy transition, the closer we will be to slowing down climate change.
