According to Valentin Alfaya, Quality and Environment Manager, &#8220;the existence of a formal agreement on funding needs and requirements for necessary financial infrastructure will facilitate the mobilisation of resources for carrying out these projects in a shorter period than originally planned.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Delivery of commitments in line with COP21<\/h3>\n<p>In addition to the <a title=\"Companies come together at COP21, Ferrovial blog\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.ferrovial.com\/en\/2015\/12\/companies-come-together-at-cop21-in-a-push-to-put-the-brakes-on-climate-change\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"dofollow\">companies and institutions that met in Paris<\/a>, other lesser-known people have pushed this deal. These included more than 400 Ferrovial employees who signed about 2,500 commitments to the climate on the microsite set up by the Ministry for Agriculture, Food and the Environment. The names of all of them and the more than 1,100,000 commitments signed by the individuals and organisation involved in the 1 million for Climate project have been collected in a book that the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Environment, Isabel Garc\u00eda Tejerina, gave to the Executive Secretary of the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change, Christiana Figueres.<\/p>\n<h3>Ferrovial&#8217;s commitment to climate change<\/h3>\n<p>Ferrovial supports ambitious commitments on climate change, with the implementation of various relevant initiatives conducted before and after the summit, such as the <a title=\"Spanish Green Growth Group hopes COP21 can foster new economic activity\" href=\"https:\/\/newsroom.ferrovial.com\/en\/news\/the-spanish-green-growth-group-hopes-that-the-cop21-agreements-can-foster-new-economic-activities\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"dofollow\">Spanish Green Growth Group<\/a>, the European \u201cNet Zero Buildings\u201d commitment or the \u201c<a title=\"Paris Pledge for Action website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.parispledgeforaction.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"dofollow\">Paris Pledge for Action<\/a>\u201d (L\u2019Appel de Paris). The company has also substantially reduced its carbon footprint: since 2009, the intensity of Carbon3 has been reduced by 38.4%, and 28% in absolute terms in all Ferrovial activities: the company currently emits 226,000 tonnes of CO2 less than in 2009. All this is an excellent form of presentation for investors, governments and potential customers, with an eye on a low-carbon economy.<\/p>\n        <\/div>\n
