CLIMATE CHANGE BEYOND CINEMA SCREENS

Halting the advance of climate change is one of our greatest challenges. As part of the business strategy, we have incorporated the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) - a set of global goals established by the United Nations (UN) - into our projects and solutions to promote initiatives that meet the needs of the present without compromising future generations.

Among the 17 UN objectives, we prioritize the fulfillment of objectives 7 (Renewable and Accessible Energy) and 13 (Action for Climate) and we contribute directly to SDGs 6 (Drinking Water and Sanitation), 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure), 15 (Terrestrial Life) and 17 (Partnerships and Means of Implementation).
