Approach

A concrete commitment

To control energy consumption.

In April 2008, Veolia Transport became the first private operator of public transportation in United States to join the California Climate Action Registry.

The CCAR was created in 2001 by the State of California to encourage private companies, local municipalities and government agencies to measure their greenhouse gas emissions voluntarily.

By taking this step, Veolia Transport has demonstrated its determination to help combat climate change and control its energy consumption.

This commitment will translate in 2009 into a process of reporting its direct and indirect greenhouse gas emissions in the preceding year, with certification by an independent party. The CCAR will later publish a report on the emissions of the member companies.
