Thanks to the commitment of our teams in car and component production, we were able to reach the 2015 milestone of decreasing our environmental impact by 35% compared to 2010. We believe our current strategies will enable us to reach our 2018 target of 45%.
The basic parameters being monitored include the consumption of energy and water, emissions of CO2 and VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and the reduction of waste. With regard to the current results achieved by austerity measures and the application of modern technologies, the target was revised in December 2014 to 35%. Due to the continued positive trend and optimistic outlook, the Board of Directors recently increased the target to 45%.
