I firmly believe the fight against climate change and how we use resources will decide the future of our society—and of the BMW Group. Having already lowered emissions per vehicle produced by more than 70% since 2006, the BMW Group now aims to reduce its emissions (Scope 1 + 2) by a further 80% from 2019 levels by 2030.

The California Air Resources Board (CARB) announced that greenhouse gas emissions in California in 2016 fell below 1990 levels for the first time since emissions peaked in 2004—a reduction roughly equivalent to taking 12 million cars off the road or saving 6 billion gallons of gasoline a year. How the inventory is compiled.

CRI, founded in 2006 in Reykjavik, Iceland, is developing technology to produce renewable methanol from clean energy and recycled CO 2 emissions. Vulcanol is fuel-grade methanol, a clean burning, high-octane fuel that can be blended with gasoline for automobiles and used in the production of biodiesel or fuel ethers (DME, MTBE, OME etc.).
