European CEOs Join Forces to Fight Climate Change
Written by Tim Triplett
Corporate executives in Europe have combined forces to lobby for policies to address climate change and to lead by example through their own companies’ actions. The new European CEO Alliance believes that fighting climate change will require a collective effort by all EU member states and collaboration between the public sector and industry to achieve the EU’s goal to cut carbon emissions by 55% by 2030.
“Climate change will remain our greatest challenge over the next years and decades. The CEO Alliance fully supports the EU Commission’s climate goals, to which there is no alternative. Now it’s time to shift the political discussions towards getting it done,” said Volkswagen Group CEO Herbert Diess.
