Momentous Climate Change deal struck at COP21

COP 21 and the Paris climate change talks marks a significant step forward, with an unprecedented 180 countries agreeing to a deal to avoid the worst impacts of climate change. It has sent an important signal, at the highest levels, that our future needs to be low carbon and has provided a framework to move forward, but it will be up to business to deliver the ambitious targets.

Speaking at the British Embassy in Paris on the low carbon economy, Lord Bourne also made it clear that firms need to move away from thinking about climate change as a corporate social responsibility issue to one that is a mainstream concern and smart business choice.
