Copenhagen Communique

The Copenhagen Communiqué on Climate Change is the definitive progressive statement from the international business community, which was published ahead of the United Nations (UN) climate change conference in Copenhagen in December 2009.

Pottinger is proud to be a signatory to the Communiqué.  The Communiqué calls for an effective agreement around climate control, with the following three basic components:

  • An effective emissions cap and reduction pathway

  • Immediate, deep emission reduction commitments by developed countries along with an effective framework to support developing countries

  • Developing countries playing their part in emission reduction
