The celebration of this day takes place 50 years after the first United Nations Conference on the Human Environment in Stockholm, in which the creation of UNEP was agreed and 5 June was chosen to be World Environment Day on an annual basis. ‘Only One Earth’ was the motto for the 1972 conference and, 50 years later, it still holds true: this planet is our only home and it is the responsibility of the whole of humanity to protect its finite resources.
To this end, the Elecnor Group wishes to further the promotion of a sustainable workstyle with the Campaign Ayudando a Ayudar (Helping to Help) which, in this year’s event, seeks to invite all the employees at Elecnor to participate in the 2nd Environmental Ideas Competition. There will be a prize for the employee or employees who, on behalf of their organisation within the Elecnor Group, submit innovative project ideas or innovative ideas for offices and warehouses. With the aim of endorsing the slogan ‘ONLY ONE EARTH’, the participants’ ideas should be initiatives that help to fight one of the three planetary crises:
The Elecnor Group performs numerous sustainable actions and initiatives which it applies to projects or to our workplaces, offices and warehouses.
The objective of the Call for Environmental Ideas is to choose two sustainable initiatives proposed by employees, which are currently in development or which can start to be implemented in 2022-2023, aimed at improving the climate crisis, protecting biodiversity or reducing waste generation. These ideas may be implemented both in projects being executed or in the Elecnor Group offices/warehouses.
In line with the slogan ‘ONLY ONE EARTH’ for World Environment Day, the participants’ ideas should fight one of the three planetary crises:
It should be pointed out that the ideas submitted should be suitable for implantation within the organisations and should promote working sustainably.
The geographic area of action will cover the countries where Elecnor has a stable presence.
