Our Work
Global Policy
Creating a low-carbon world requires a technological revolution. How we get there and the speed of the transition will depend not just on humanity's inventiveness. Equally as important will be the policy tools that we use to regulate and incentivize business and consumer decisions.
The Climate Group is working with its corporate partners, political decision makers, and international thought leaders to help identify and develop the global and national policy frameworks that will accelerate the low-carbon transition.
In 2010 to 2012, our policy work will focus on the technology, financing and investment issues that business and political decision makers need to understand to make sure the revolution happens at the scale and speed we need.
Some of our current programs are listed and linked to below. To see how we're working with national governments, visit our US policy page.

- Breaking the Climate Deadlock
We partnered with Former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair to deliver this initiative. Through high-level advocacy, targeted research and reports, we worked together to show the building blocks of a fair and effective global deal on climate change. Our reports, like Cutting the Cost: The Economic Benefits of Collaborative Climate Action and Technology for a Low Carbon Future, show both why, and how, a global deal can benefit all economies while fighting climate change.
