  • The China Greentech Report™ 2009

    China’s market requirements for greentech solutions are tremendous. Chinese government policies are positive drivers for greentech market development and a wide range of businesses are beginning to deploy greentech solutions to address a broad spectrum of environmental issues. While significant challenges remain, stakeholders have clear opportunities to accelerate market development and create a more environmentally sustainable China. – September 2009 (pdf 4.95MB)
  • Sustainability: The Rise of Consumer Responsibility

    As the forecast for the economy remains gray, this new report sheds light on how consumers find the silver lining by living responsibly. – January 2009 (pdf 987KB)
  • Adaptation – An issue brief for business

    The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report, Climate Change 2007: Synthesis Report, forecasts that climate change will have significant impacts on populations and environments around the world. Furthermore, it is likely that in the absence of concerted efforts to mitigate greenhouse emissions, climate change will have negative effects on business and global markets. It will likely lead to a change in existing business models and current risk management structures. – January 2009 (pdf 628KB)

  • Consumers, Brands and Climate Change

    Consumers are increasingly committed to tackling climate change, despite challenging economic times, and do not see any competition between climate change and the economy. The challenge now facing brands that seek to work with consumers on this issue is not whether consumers will support, but what they will support. – 2008 (pdf 1.44MB)
