ÇEVKO Foundation continues to address the climate crisis in all its aspects with the ÇEVKO Foundation Conversations initiated in cooperation with the Economic Journalists Association (EGD). The second interview, held in 2022, was titled “Climate Change and Sustainability Studies of Leading Industrial Organizations in Turkey”. While EGD President Celal Toprak moderated the conversation, ÇEVKO Foundation Secretary General Mete İmer and CarrefourSA and Migros representatives attended.
Mete İmer conveyed the work of industrial organizations from different sectors in the field of sustainability and climate change:
"In today's interview, we are together with representatives of two important organizations from the retail sector that are members of the ÇEVKO Foundation. The sector reduces plastic and other waste in its operations, reduces carbon emissions and provides information to consumers to increase social awareness."
İmer also touched upon current developments regarding the Paris Climate Agreement and Turkey's 2053 carbon neutral target.
Migros Product Safety and Environmental Management Group Manager Serpil Ürek introduced the “Migros Good Future Plan” in the interview:
"We include our customers, suppliers and employees in our supply chain. With the Migros Good Future Plan, we include our entire ecosystem in our sustainability efforts."
CarrefourSA OHS, Quality Assurance, Environment and Sustainability Group Manager Tayfun Akusta emphasized the importance of the program by sharing global and Turkish data:
