Climate change is a concern for both established global leaders and high growth companies. In a recent Ernst & Young survey of global organizations with greater than US$25b market capitalization, 73% had made commitments to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.1Leading organizations know the benefits of acting early. They have seized the opportunities and taken the risks and are now reaping the rewards. They are leveraging their climate change agenda to help generate revenue, reduce costs and meet stakeholders’ expectations. They are:
- Proactively marketing their climate change strategies to enhance their brands
- Exploring emerging carbon market opportunities
- Seizing opportunities to offset reductions through existing carbon markets
- Taking full advantage of tax credits, grants and other incentives to encourage businesses to become more climate change friendly
