A transformação ocorrida na área ambiental da CSN nos primeiros anos desse século deve-se muito a ação inteligente, idônea, competente e estratégica do Luiz Claudio. A CSN nesse período foi reconhecida como empresa benchmark na área ambiental devido aos fortes investimentos realizados e, principalmente, a forte cultura de prevenção e proteção ao meio ambiente implementada. Luiz Claudio mostrou a cada pessoa da empresa a importância da sua participação na melhoria do ambiente através de ações e investimentos e, às pessoas fora da companhia, as fortes mudanças que ocorriam no Grupo CSN. Foi um momento de muitas conquistas e que o alavancou a desafios ainda maiores e superados pela seu conhecimento, caráter e honestidade. É um dos mais competentes e preparados profissionais que atuam hoje na área de Meio Ambiente e Sustentabilidade.
