Climate change is one of the main challenges facing society. Industry, science, politics and society need to work together to find global solutions for climate protection. At the beginning of 2008, BASF presented an action plan for climate protection. BASF set ambitious climate protection goals and appointed a Climate Protection Officer and presented a comprehensive corporate carbon footprint. Climate protection is an integral part of BASF's sustainability strategy. BASF supports the goals of the Kyoto Protocol and is committed to contributing to their global implementation.
