DIAN RECEIVES THE “CALCULO, REDUZCO Y COMPENSO” SEAL FROM MITECO

At Dian we have renewed the “Calculo, Reduzco y Compenso” seal awarded by the Ministry for Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge. For a greener future.

Dian has a clear objective and commitment to sustainability. We have recently renewed the “Calculo, Reduzco y Compenso” seal awarded by the Ministry for Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge (MITECO), a recognition that reflects all the efforts put into the calculation, reduction and compensation of greenhouse gas emissions generated by our activity.

Why is it so important for Dian to offset the carbon footprint?

Since our commitment to sustainability at Dian, our objective has been clear: to minimize the CO2 emissions emitted into the atmosphere by our activities.

After calculating our carbon footprint, we have been actively working to reduce emissions, reflecting on the actions necessary to minimize our environmental impact. However, we understand that, although reduction is a priority, there are unavoidable emissions that must be offset to contribute to a sustainable balance. Therefore, we complement our reduction actions with emission compensation projects that allow us to absorb CO₂ from the atmosphere.

For these reasons, this type of action is a sustainable alternative for combating climate change, contributing to the balance of ecosystems and preserving the well-being of the planet.

Improvements proposed by Dian for Carbon Footprint offsetting:

Since 2020 in Dian we are calculating the carbon footprint of the organization, achieving a 30% reduction of our generated emissions. All this, thanks to the implementation of different proposals to reduce and offset the carbon footprint.

These are some of the basic lines of improvement implemented :

• Installation of solar panels.

• 100% renewable energy consumption.

• Acquisition of two electric vehicles.

• Contribution to the Tellado e Viña project in Galicia, in terms of reforestation, since trees not only provide oxygen, but also act as oxygen sinks, thus facilitating its natural absorption.

Being able to contribute a grain of sand to the well-being of our planet is within everyone’s reach.
