2009 is a crucial year for the climate change agenda which was hoped to culminate in a new international climate deal being signed in Copenhagen this December. The Copenhagen Communiqué is a short, punchy statement that draws on some of the key thinking on climate policy that has emerged from the international business community over the past two years, and sets out the business case for a strong and effective UN climate framework. The Copenhagen Communiqué is an initiative of The Prince of Wales's Corporate Leaders' Group on Climate Change (CLG) which is run by The University of Cambridge Programme for Sustainability Leadership. In the run up to the COP-15, it secured the support of over 950 companies, from the US, EU, Japan, Australia and Canada, to Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa; ranging from the world's largest companies and best known brands, to Small and Medium sized Enterprises (SMEs). You can download the text of the communiqué.
