Rethink Business: How Addressing Climate Change Can Improve The Bottom Line
Key Learnings from WWF Climate Savers Companies
For Canadian business, the threat of climate change looms large. Nonetheless, despite its reputation as a clean, eco-loving country of verdant forests and sparkling rivers, Canada remains a major laggard in climate protection. The economy is wedded to fossil fuels, and the federal government has been reluctant to tackle the problem of climate change through national regulation. It is clear that we need to look elsewhere for meaningful change. The decision to take a lead on climate change is not taken lightly. WWF’s Climate Savers program, though, is a great example of what can be achieved when businesses and non-profit organizations decide to work together to achieve common goals.
