Continental Intensifies Climate Change Mitigation with New Immediate Action Program

The 10 highest-volume electric vehicle brands worldwide in 2021 all placed their trust in Continental technology.

With its Net ZerolNow immediate action program to mitigate climate change, Continental is offering its customers the opportunity to achieve carbon neutrality for their business with the technology company along the entire value chain today. The program aims to enable customers with ambitious sustainability goals to neutralize the currently remaining "carbon backpack" of their relevant business with Continental. This carbon backpack includes all emissions generated by processes at Continental and its suppliers as well as following end of use, but does not include the customer's use phase and emissions. The carbon backpack is offset by an equal quantity of so-called negative emissions. Net Zero|Now complements the reduction measures implemented by the company to date and sustainable innovations such as the Conti GreenConcept tire, which are designed to achieve carbon neutrality in line with the Paris climate agreement today.
