CO2 Disclosure

We track and audit global carbon emissions annually, in line with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol developed by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) and the World Resources Institute and used by WBCSD CSI members.


CEMEX also participates in the following initiatives in order to measure and better manage CO2 emissions:

Carbon Disclosure Project, a voluntary initiative that requests annual information on climate-change risk management and performance.

Our reporting of our greenhouse-gas emissions is subject to an external limited assurance process undertaken by PricewaterhouseCoopers. Click here to view the assurance statement detailing the review work and conclusions.

CO2 Disclosure

Getting the Numbers Right (GNR), a sector-wide global information database developed through the WBCSD CSI, covers more than 800 cement facilities in more than 100 countries and provides accurate, verified data on the cement industry's CO2 emissions and energy performance. We have provided data to GNR since 2007. The first report summarizing the industry's CO2 emissions was released in June of 2008. Cement production by companies participating in the GNR initiative increased by 53 percent from 1990 to 2006, whereas absolute net CO2 emissions increased by only 35 percent, demonstrating a decoupling of production and related emissions.
