The Role of Business in Climate Policy

Businesses play a crucial role in shaping climate policies that can facilitate the transition to net zero emissions. Engaging with government representatives, particularly during the months leading up to significant climate conferences, allows businesses to communicate their needs and suggest necessary policies for achieving climate goals. A two-way dialogue is essential, whereby businesses inform policymakers of barriers to achieving net zero as well as the supports needed for effective implementation. This collaborative approach can help crowdsource the necessary policy responses that will enable timely action against climate change.
