Reviews

Private companies have a critical role to play in supporting and enabling the transition to a zero- carbon economy. Corporate action is shaped by the interplay of external pressures and internal governance systems, processes, cultures and values. This book makes an important contribution to understanding these dynamics and helping companies accelerate the zero carbon transition . - Professor Nicholas Stern, Chair of the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment, London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) and Head of the Stern Review on the Economics of Climate Change.
