ABENGOA + AL GORE. The Climate Project Spain Foundation.


Focus-Abengoa Foundation joins the meeting organised by The Climate Project Spain Foundation in the fight against climate change.


Nearly 300 people attended the meeting on Saturday 18 October organised in Seville by The Climate Project Spain Foundation, which was attended by the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize winners Al Gore and Rajendra Pachauri and sponsored by Abengoa.
The conclusion of the meeting can be summarised by the statement that ?climate change is not related to quality of life but to life itself?. The current energy model, which is more than 80% dependent on fossil fuels as primary energy sources, is obsolete, because oil and gas reserves will be exhausted within a period of years. And obsolete, because above all, it is unsustainable over time because it causes the progressive warming of the atmosphere due to greenhouse gas emissions.
