On 19.06.2012 the Cement Sustainability Initiative (CSI), which operates under the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), launched its 2012 Progress Report at the Business Action for Sustainable Development (BASD) Day in Rio de Janeiro during the Rio+20 Summit. From the publication of the CSI’s Agenda for Action in 2002, the cement industry has changed significantly, and this report shows how the CSI has been successful in adding value and making a contributions to sustainable solutions. The challenge now is to maintain this level on existing activities, and at the same time, address emerging issues such as water. This Progress Report also maps out how the CSI intends to achieve this across the next decade.
