| Abstract: |
In 2003 the World Resources Institute convened a group of large corporations based in the northeast United States to explore the various facets of private sector action on climate change. The diverse group included companies from various sectors and of differing size and geographic reach. This �Climate Northeast� initiative was designed to share experiences and build momentum among companies for the benefit of the business community, for informing emerging regional climate policy discussions, and for devising strategies to succeed in a �carbon-constrained world.� In particular, the group assessed the drivers for action, the management systems for quantifying and analyzing emissions, and the energy-related projects for reducing emissions. This report is an overview of that work. |
