Despite the seemingly endless debate about climate change, at a certain point we all need to rally behind science and data. Earlier this year, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change announced that we are out of time to figure out how to curb carbon emissions. The time is now to make changes, both at individual and societal levels.
Kellogg Insight has published a new article and associated video on what businesses can do to combat climate change. In particular, author Meghan Busse outlines three industries that are the main contributors to carbon emissions: electricity generation, transportation, and industrial and agricultural use. She outlines how far the leaders of these industries have come in already reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and which steps they need to take to maximize reductions.
Give this article a read and some thought. Changes are going to have to come from all of us, and hopefully this inspires leadership to take a stand.
