To reach this goal, we’ve created a coalition of governments and the world’s most influential businesses – all committed to tackling climate change. Through this coalition, we’re helping to set the targets, create the policies, build the confidence, and generate the political willpower needed to make the changes the world requires by 2050. " [1]
