The fact that this commitment pays off is proven by the achievement of all klimaaktiv goals, which were accomplished in 2019 - one year before the set deadline. Minister of Sustainability, Maria Patek, congratulates the pact partners on this achievement for climate protection: „Our klimaaktiv partners show as pioneers that energy efficiency, business success and climate protection can be combined. With determination and dedication, they have already saved more than 1.39 million tons of CO2 since 2005 - equivalent to the emissions of around 200,000 flights around the world. " Future climate goals are already being worked on.
