According to the United Nations, “climate change refers to long-term changes in temperatures and weather patterns,” and today we are witnessing the first effects of this problem. At El Puerto de Liverpool, we have become aware of what we are experiencing today, which is why we have developed various goals and strategies to address the current challenges.
Our goal is to reduce our direct emissions by 268,000 metric tons of CO2 equivalents, while also developing targets aligned with science-based goals.
Since 2019, we have been measuring our carbon footprint based on the GHG Protocol methodology and using an operational approach. The direct emissions from our operations consist of Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions.
Scope 1 emissions refer to all emissions generated by the use of fossil fuels in stationary or mobile sources, while Scope 2 emissions include indirect greenhouse gas emissions resulting from the use of electricity at our facilities.

As part of our efforts to reduce our emissions, starting this year we began measuring our Scope 3 emissions, which will allow us to identify the indirect emissions from our operations and work with our supply chain.
