HAZTE ECO: together for the environment

Led by

Canal Neox

,

HAZTE ECO

is an

Atresmedia

initiative addressing the protection

and defence of the environment and encouraging social mobilisation in this area. Since

its creation in 2010, and thanks to the support of the main environmental organisations

such as Greenpeace, WWF and Ecoembes,

HAZTE ECO

has promoted many initiatives

with specific challenges for tackling climate change, encouraging recycling, preventing the

Arctic melting and preventing forest fires. These actions have also had the support of the

Group

's reporting power.

In 2015 important initiatives were run to protect the environment.

Although

HAZTE ECO

has been working with the Greenpeace Save the Arctic campaign since 2012, in April 2015 this support was

intensified with the collaboration of

laSexta

, which joined forces with

Neox

to cover a women's expedition to the Arctic, headed

by

Elena Anaya

. In addition, programmes such as

El intermedio

and

Zapeando

on

laSexta

and

HAZTE ECO

on

Neox

issued an

appeal to promote the gathering of signatures which, together with the great work done by Greenpeace around the world, made

it possible to obtain a commitment to protect 10% of the Arctic, a major step in ensuring the sustainability of this habitat.

Save the Arctic

Atresmedia

once again supported this action organized by the WWF, which has now become the largest global initiative in

defence of the environment. Since 2007, people from around the world have come together to do the same thing at the same

time: switch off their lights for one hour. The

Atresmedia

facilities did the same and the group's news programmes covered the

story throughout the world. In addition,

Neox

dedicated a special segment to the initiative on the

HAZTE ECO

programme, and it

also had a major presence on the campaign's website and social network profiles.

Earth Hour

The

HAZTE ECO

programme continued its awareness-raising and promotion efforts on the issue of recycling, in collaboration

with Ecoembes. Several programmes covered topics such as the processing and transformation of different types of waste (drink

cans, canned goods and cartons). Efforts were made to clear up certain 'myths' about recycling in order to offer viewers clear and

useful information.
