Barcelona wants to contribute towards the fight against climate change by improving energy efficiency as well as reducing its dependency on fossil fuels and greenhouse gas emissions. The city therefore promotes renewable energies and improvements in urban air quality, by taking action on noise, lighting and air quality.
