Prevention of Pollution : Targets
Targets
MC conducts an environmental performance survey for all MC Group companies in order to manage pollution prevention as well as waste reduction, reuse and recycling initiatives on both a non-consolidated and an MC Group-wide basis. On a non-consolidated basis, we set and monitor sustainable and effective reduction targets related to the volume of waste produced in conjunction with Head Office activities, in order to reduce, reuse and recycle waste through operation of environmental management systems (EMS).
