TRANSPORTATION Having the best qualified operators, making efficient use of fuel, producing less wear and tear on tires, and reducing toxic emissions are crucial to maintaining the highest standards of transportation quality and engineering. From the beginnings of the Clean Transportation Program in Mexico, Walmart de México y Centroamérica has reduced CO2 emissions by 11,284 tons, which is equivalent to taking 2,000 vehicles off the road. The company has also saved 4.1 million liters of diesel, a savings equal to 50 million pesos. For the third year, we have received recognition from the Clean Transportation Program, sponsored by the Secretary of the Environment and Natural Resources, and the Secretary of Transportation. Trips have been reduced by 7.4 million kilometers, which is equal to making 580 trips around the world. In Central America, the "Backhauling" initiative, conducted with our suppliers, has saved 121,230 gallons of diesel and 1,235 tons CO2 emissions of GHG, which is the same as taking 247 vehicles off the road for a full year. 00 PRODUCTS Promoting more sustainable products entails having packaging that makes better use of materials, reducing environmental impact during product life cycles, marketing organic products, pesticide-free products and those with low-energy use, as well as encouraging the adoption of low environmental-impact farming practices. (See subchapter on suppliers). We drive the optimization of product packaging and containers. Preference has been given to substituting materials such as plastic for ones such as PET, which are easier to recycle, or with lighter packaging. We have discovered solutions with our suppliers such as loading more merchandise on the trucks and thereby reducing carbon emissions. We promote improvements to product life cycles so as to produce even greater reductions in environmental impact, regarding energy, materials and/or distribution. Moreover, we continue communicating newer and better ways to care for the environment to our customers. Our Walmart and Superama formats have an area set aside for organic products, including milk, cereals, sugar, and coffee, to name just a few. We also promote the sale of pesticide-free products.
