#SustainableStories: our concrete actions in sustainable development
Our actions for climate
Our climate commitments seek to accelerate SUEZ contribution to carbon neutrality for the communities in which the Group operates. Those commitments fall into three categories: decarbonising energy; reducing greenhouse gas emissions from our activities; ensuring the resilience of essential services by adapting the sites we operate that are most vulnerable to the consequences of climate change.

Our actions for nature
Our commitments to nature address the five pressures identified by IPBES (Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services) as being responsible for biodiversity decline. We are taking action in three areas: preserving resources; increasing our capabilities in terms of regenerating natural environments; and reducing pressure on biodiversity.
