What Companies Talk About When They Talk About Climate Change
How companies communicate their climate change goals and data is studied in a new report from CorporateRegister.com, the largest
provider of online corporate responsibility reports. Looking at corporate sustainability reports
from the Global FT500, the "Corporate Climate Communications Report 2007" assesses climate change
disclosure as a separate issue from a company's actual carbon performance.
Twenty-nine companies and their voluntary
climate related disclosures are analyzed the report. Six sector leaders are also surveyed in depth.
The report found that 87% of CSR reports published in the last 15 months addressed climate change,
with 65% of the reports including a special climate change section.
