09:05 Business leaders up the ante on meaningful climate action
The Climate Leaders' Coalition - whose signatories are responsible for almost 60 percent of the country's greenhouse gas emissions - will today officially launch a Statement of Ambition, which aims for meaningful climate action.
The new statement will require signatories to adopt short and long-term science-aligned emissions reduction targets; assess and publicly disclose their climate opportunities and risks - including in their value chain; consider an assessment of nature-based risks; plan for a just transition and proactively support their stakeholders - including employees, suppliers and customers - to act on climate change.
