CEOs release new statement on efforts to curb global warming

Published



The Business Roundtable, a group of 160 executives representing U.S. companies from a wide range of industries, released a policy statement Tuesday on climate change. The four-page report acknowledged that global warming is a “potentially serious and far-reaching” issue and that humans were partly to blame for the increases in greenhouse gas emissions.

The report emphasized improving production efficiency, supporting a 25 percent reduction in energy intensity. The statement also called for a better reporting mechanism for documenting emissions and progress in reductions.
