In line with the initiative developed by the Climate Change Directorate<\/strong> of the Costa Rican Ministry of Environment and Energy (MINAE), Coca Cola Femsa<\/strong> announced the acquisition of nine trucks equipped with Euro V technology that reduces nitrogen dioxide emissions by 60%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The MINAE <\/strong>program is a voluntary mechanism for reporting greenhouse gas (GHG) inventories, demonstrating actions to reduce, remove, and offset emissions, and strengthening decarbonization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Maricel \u00c1lvarez<\/strong>, Coca-Cola FEMSA<\/strong>‘s Corporate Affairs Manager, explained that the trucks use a system called SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction and urea) that transforms part of the polluting particles in the fuel into water vapor, which represents a 63% reduction of nitrogen oxide and 90% of particulate matter<\/strong>, the most polluting components present in diesel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
