But, at ACCIONA we prefer to sign the commit-ment to achieve it much sooner. The rea-son is imperative: the level of decarbon-ization is not occurring nearly as fast as global warming. Carbon neutrality is not enough, we need to be positive contributors to the new economy and not be satisfied with resilience. We want to lead the way, to serve as the call effect. To do this, we have proposed the con-cept of regeneration to make up time. It not only compensates, but also heals envi-ronmental, economic and social wounds.
