Business leaders call for more action on climate change
Business leaders have called for more action by politicians on climate change, writing to all three major political parties to press forward "transformational change".The Prince of Wales' UK Corporate Leaders Group on Climate Change are calling for immediate action on creating a low carbon economy, despite the potential recession.
Within the letter, the group call for:
o major investment in infrastructure projects
o progress on greener forward procurement commitments
o support for low-carbon technologies and products
o a drive to improve energy efficiency standards.
The group recognise the need for cross party support and commitment to drive this forward, and seeks a package of policy measures aimed at every sector of the economy.
