Combined, minerals and cement production accounts for approximately 10% of all greenhouse gas emissions. With growing populations, a larger middle class and a transition to greener energy, the demand for cement and minerals will only increase in the next decade.

 

A more sustainable future requires action from the industries. We will lead this action towards zero emissions in mining and cement, without compromising quality or our customers' commercial competitiveness.

The goals

Our ambitions moving forward

 

With MissionZero, we aim to deliver solutions that make it possible to operate zero-emissions mining operations and cement plants. Achieving the goals by 2030 requires a paradigm shift in collaboration, innovation and adoption of new technology in the industries.
