Good for the economy, for people, and for the climate

To achieve a sustainable reduction in CO₂ emissions, we must make better use of resources, including – and above all – in industry. The goal: lower CO₂ emissions, higher productivity.

The climate protection challenge

The time has come to act.

The earth is in imminent danger of passing critical turning points for its life support systems. Nevertheless, we still have a chance to keep global warming in check – if we all, industry included, make our contribution.
The efficient and productive use of energy is a key factor that contributes to climate protection.

Less CO₂, greater sustainability: reduce your carbon footprint.

In order to halt global warming, scientists say, greenhouse gas emissions must not exceed their peak in 2020 and must then be drastically reduced. How can we achieve this? One answer lies in greater efficiency. The industry consumes worldwide almost 37% of secondary energy; it can therefore make an important contribution to meeting climate targets – through the efficient and productive use of energy. The digital enterprise offers completely new possibilities for optimizing resources and energy efficiency. Siemens Energy & Performance Management shows you how you can reduce emissions of greenhouse gases in your production processes without compromising your productivity. The future belongs to us all.

Taking action on global warming

Together, we can help reach the climate targets.
