This partnership avoided polluting 19,300 m 3 of water in 2019 and 13,100 m 3 in 2020. The decrease between 2019 and 2020 is mainly due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Raising awareness of waste sorting and waste reduction initiatives Every November, during European Waste Reduction Week, Natixis organizes a series of events to raise employee awareness of waste management and its impact on the environment. In 2020, several remote conferences were held, including a conference on planned obsolescence with the non-profit organization “Halte à l’Obsolescence programmée” and workshops on zero waste led by an employee involved in this field (France) and by the Sistema Terrestre Sustentável association (Portugal).
The volume of sorted waste decreaseddrastically in 2020 compared to 2019, given the limited presence of employees on site in the context of the COVID-19 health crisis. In addition, Natixis sells its electrical and electronic equipment (including IT) to specialized reuse and recycling channels. The weight of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) was 6.26 tons in 2020 for France. Natixis Frankfurt transfers the profits from the resale of WEEE to environmental projects around thwe orld. In addition, a collection circuit for aluminum coffee capsules has been set up in collaborationwith the supplier and the companies in charge of collecting them in order to recycle them. Abroad, Natixis’ offices in New York have aligned themselves with the French approach by installing collection systems for this type ocfapsule. Natixis Investment Manager France renewed its contract with the company Cy-clope to collect cigarette butts from the Éléments building in order to recover them in specialized channels.
2020 KEY EVENT Creation of a “carpet recycling” system In early 2020, an eco-responsibleapproachwas initiatedwith the creationof a carpet recyclingchannel. This involves the processing of carpets for allcarpet removal work in the buildings occupied by Natixis. This project covers two dimensions: environmental: 97% of the carpet surfaces removed were integrated into a cycle of transforming floor covering V waste into alternative fuels; societal: the work of removing carpets has been entrusted to the ARES group, an association for Economic and V Social Reintegration, whose main purpose is to promotethe integration of underprivileged people.
