Reliable and effective environmental management is integral to the delivery of safe, sustainable, and efficient operations, and is an important element of CIMIC’s licence to operate. We respect the diverse and sensitive regions and environments in which we work.
We aim to continually improve and innovate to increase the efficiency of the resources we use, to reduce waste and to lower costs, creating greater value for our clients and benefitting the environment.
Our environment pillar focus areas address environmental management, sustainable products and services, climate change, circular economy, water protection, biodiversity and ecosystems.
Our target is to reduce our emissions generated by Scope 1 (primarily fuels) and 2 (purchased electricity) to net zero by 2038 and to achieve net zero for Scope 3 (primarily materials such as concrete, steel and bitumen, as well as waste and travel) by 2045.
We are also committed to abiding by the principles of the UN Global Compact and we support the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement to stop global warming.
