Business supports our call for clear carbon reporting
| Sourced From WWF |
Over 180 businesses and other organisations have signed a letter that WWF and The Co-operative sent to the UK secretaries of state for environment, energy and business – asking that they make it compulsory for large companies to reveal all their greenhouse gas emissions.
Mandatory carbon reporting (MCR), as it’s known, is a vital step in working out exactly who’s emitting what, and giving investors clear evidence on which to base financial decisions.
It will provide comprehensive and comparable information on the progress companies are making towards cutting emissions. This will in effect reward the companies taking the lead in the shift a green economy – by highlighting their good performance and letting investors support the businesses that are proving best at managing the risks and opportunities of an emerging low-carbon world.
