One of the main concerns and responsibilities that we have as a company is to care for the environment for the future generations. The vineyard is involved in knowing and resolving issues regarding global warming.

One of the negative impacts of using fossil fuels for production is that it emanates carbon dioxide, which in great quantities augments its concentration in the atmosphere. The main problem with this high carbon dioxide concentration is that the Earth’s temperature might increase, a process known as the greenhouse effect. Carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere impede infrared radiation to escape to outer space, bouncing back to Earth and generating extra warmth for the Earth’s environment.

It is for this reason that Viña Carta Vieja has taken considerations in the matter and is working to neutralize its carbon dioxide emissions involved in wine transportation to Europe, the Americas and Asia by purchasing carbon assets (carbon points) from the specialized environmental company, First Climate.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Sustainable development is one that is focused on current needs but does not endanger or risk future abilities. Sustainability: beyond the environment.

As a company we try to include other aspects related to the quality of life for human beings such as:

Revitalizing economic growth
Improving and fortifying the socioeconomic conditions of our workers (salary, work conditions, fringe benefits, training courses, among others)
Preserving natural resources
Being aware of the impact of our decisions on the environment
Promoting technological training
Increasing production levels to obtain export generated income.
