Future in Action
Our program focused on achieving environmental excellence through climate action, circularity, and natural resource management with the primary objective of becoming a net-zero CO₂ company.
The path to carbon neutrality
Our purpose is to build a better future, and in order to do that we must address humanity’s most pressing issue: climate change. As one of the world’s largest building solutions providers, climate action has been a priority for Cemex for many years.
Climate action goals
Our ultimate goal is to become a net-zero CO₂ company by 2050. To ensure we are on the right track, we have set the most ambitious 2030 targets available to the industry:
Scope 1 Goals*
47% less of CO₂ per ton of cementitious product and 41% less of carbon content in concrete
Scope 2 Goals*
47% less of CO₂ per ton of cementitious product and 41% less of carbon content in concrete
New Scope 3 Goals*
47% less of CO₂ per ton of cementitious product and 41% less of carbon content in concrete
2050
Net-zero CO2 emissions across the company
Our 2030 and 2050 Net-Zero targets do not consider the use of offsets or carbon credits, in alignment with SBTi Criteria.
* 1990 baseline ** 2020 baseline
Our climate action program
Future in Action’s six pillars drive sustainable excellence across our product life cycle and value chain, pushing the boundaries of construction through circularity, lower-carbon solutions, and transformative innovation.
Our results
Our past efforts and achievements to reduce carbon emissions, primarily focused on the cement production process, have proven successful. In fact, the technology and processes we need to achieve our 2030 goals have already been tested and are implemented in some of our operations, and need only be scaled.

Global alignment and validation
Cemex is among the first companies in the global cement industry to validate its 2030 decarbonization goals through the Science-Based Targets initiative for alignment under their new 1.5ºC scenario, the most ambitious pathway defined for the industry. This validation includes Scope 1, 2, and 3 targets, allowing us to contribute to meet the Paris Agreement goals and comply with the Business Ambition for 1.5°C by the United Nations. These goals keep us on the right path to achieving our ultimate goal to become a net-zero CO₂ company by 2050.
