The COP21 climate talks this December in Paris are shaping up to achieve significant progress on international and national climate and energy policy. In the run-up to Paris, companies can seize important opportunities to shape the outcome of COP21 by demonstrating strong commitments, providing targeted advice to policymakers, and preparing to act on the likely results.
In this third briefing in a series on climate policy and action, BSR will discuss one of the four pillars of the Paris outcome, the “Action Agenda” where companies, cities and civil society make bold commitments and seize quick wins to reduce emissions and build adaptive capacity. We will also discuss efforts under the UNFCCC to increase pre-2020 ambition under “Workstream 2.”

As the UN Climate Conference (COP24) kicks off, we emphasize why we need a just transition to a low-carbon world and how business can play a role in achieving it.
The just transition is an economy-wide process that produces the plans, policies, and investments that build resilient economies and communities with green and decent jobs, and this report explores the role business can play in making it a reality.
At COP24, business is calling on government to create a just transition to net zero, participation in the Talanoa Dialogue, and strong Paris rulebook guidelines.
This is how companies can address the interactions of climate change and human rights in vulnerable communities.
