The Carbon Price Communiqué

The Corporate Climate Communiqués are international business statements calling for global policies and action to tackle climate change. This year, as part of a series of Communiqués that take a more detailed look at specific questions, The Carbon Price Communiqué makes the case for setting a price on carbon emissions as one of the main building blocks of an effective and ambitious climate change policy framework.

With this document business leaders are reiterating the value of a strong carbon price as a tool that if designed properly, can work along with other complementary policies to deliver carbon emissions reductions proportionate with the scale of the climate challenge.

Who produced The Communiqué?

To ensure we build the biggest possible movement of enlightened business voices behind this call, the Corporate Leaders Group is working in association with the Corporate Leaders Network for Climate Action and with contributions from the World Business Council on Sustainable Development, and the International Emissions Trading Association.

It has been built on the foundation of the previous Communiqués, created by The Prince of Wales’s Corporate Leaders Group on Climate Change (CLG) and managed and developed by the University of Cambridge Programme for Sustainability Leadership (CPSL).
