Furthermore, we set objectives for improving our environmental behavior, and we bolster our climate strategy by developing infrastructure and services for<strong> a &#8220;green&#8221; economy <\/strong>with low emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reducing the Environmental Impact<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The considerable volume of earth moved for construction contracts has led us to set a reuse goal for minimizing the impacts associated with this activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reusing earth at the construction site eliminates emissions that would otherwise be generated by transportation, in addition to promoting better landscape integration on-site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve set an annual target of 80% reuse of soils, as well as 70% reuse of construction and demolition waste (CDW). In 2024, Ferrovial have recovered 93% of CDW and 92% of soil was reused.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/m-wysiwig>\n\n\n\n<m-wysiwig class=\"wp-block-components-wysiwyg\"><div slot=\"maincontent\">\n<h3
