The commitment of the sector is a fact, and it is also their responsibility to the future. So means it the Minister of environment and housing of the Generalitat de Catalunya, Francesc Baltasar, who, in a statement to this report, stated firmly that "without doubt the chemical sector has contributed significantly to the improvement of the quality of life of the people" and added: "In the chemical sector do many of the hopes lie to achieve sustainable development".
"If the money does not circulate as before, many projects may be interrupted due to lack of funding"
During our meeting with the head of the Department of environment of the autonomous Government of Catalonia we asked about the impact that the current financial crisis may have on efforts to reduce emissions of CO2, as well as on social awareness and of companies in relation to the environment. Our partner acknowledged that "If the money does not circulate as before, many projects may be interrupted due to lack of funding".

Balthasar also gave us his point of view in relation to the ecomarketing, strategy that companies sometimes abuse. So the consumer can discern the 'greenwash' bet by the environmental protection, Balthasar alludes to labelling systems and ensures that "increasingly companies that opt for these systems and provide environmental issues not as a burden but as an opportunity for differentiation and innovation".
