Transport is one of the biggest global emitters of CO₂, and while rail is one of the most environmentally friendly ways to travel, there is still work to be done to reduce and eliminate the industry’s carbon footprint and other emissions. Alstom’s Services business is working on all fronts to cut emissions for its customers. We're working hard to green the railways by modernising trains for the post-carbon era.

After the disastrous forest fires in Kabylia, which affected a large area and resulted in thousands of victims, the Algerian President of the Republic strongly encouraged reforestation and the fight against deforestation. As a result, Alstom Algeria signed an agreement with the conservation of the Directorate of Forests to reforest the Wilaya of Mostaganem, which is an Algerian public establishment responsible for the forests of Wilaya management. Our main contractual commitments include planting trees and shrubs, monitoring tree and shrub planting from May to September 2022, as well as watering during the summer and weeding. It also includes watering of the plantation every 15 days for four months and shrub planting with Alstom teams on the plot allocated to Alstom Algeria on May 12. The signing of the “I plant and I take care of it" convention enables us to support reforestation in the area and the local community, including Mostaganem and its surroundings. #reforestation #sustainability #conservation #plantation #localcommunity #Algeria

Accompanied by Michel Boccaccio, Maite Ramos and Juan Neri, Henri saw the production lines for important projects underway and the on-site welding school. During the visit, he also took the opportunity to recognise the dedicated and talented work of 750+ employees, who are building trains in Mexico for Mexico and the world.
