Call For Collective Action Towards A Sustainable Future

The author argues that corporate organizations must take the lead in climate action because a small number of companies are responsible for a significant portion of global emissions. The text posits that investing in renewable energy and energy efficiency is beneficial for both the environment and corporate bottom lines, and that corporate action can help governments exceed their INDC declarations for COP 21.

• A small group of 90 corporations is responsible for two-thirds of all man-made global warming emissions, meaning corporate action can significantly impact climate change.
• Corporate climate actions, specifically renewable energy and energy efficiency projects, provide financial benefits by reducing operating costs while simultaneously lowering emissions.
• While governments have expressed intent through INDC declarations for COP 21, corporations can act as catalysts to help these governments achieve more ambitious results.
