Small Hands, Big Impact: Family Day for a Greener Madrid

Spain / Environment

29 March 2025

At Mitsubishi Electric Europe Spanish Branch, they believe in giving back to society whenever possible. One of our key focuses is the environment, and they are proud to support local efforts to protect and preserve natural spaces that need greater attention.

While Madrid may not have a coastline, spending time by the region’s swamps and reservoirs has become increasingly popular for families. However, the rise in tourism and urban development has brought with it a concerning level of pollution – particularly plastic waste. Although local authorities work hard to manage the issue, ongoing support is essential.

In response, Mitsubishi Electric Europe Spanish Branch has taken a proactive role in preserving the Pantano de San Juan, the most visited reservoir in the Madrid region. Known for its commitment to sustainability, Mitsubishi Electric Europe has partnered with local environmental organisations to host regular clean-up days. These events bring together employees, their families, and community volunteers to help remove litter, plastics, and other harmful pollutants from the area.

Participants of the event

This initiative not only helps restore the natural beauty of the reservoir but also aims to inspire others to adopt more environmentally responsible habits. Together, we are working towards a cleaner, healthier future for all.
