Business Environmental Leadership Council

Learn more from the Center for Media and Democracy's research on climate change.

Business Environmental Leadership Council (BELC) was created by the Pew Center on Global Climate Change "under the belief that business engagement is critical for developing efficient, effective solutions to the climate problem. We also believe that companies taking early action on climate strategies and policy will gain sustained competitive advantage over their peers. The BELC is now the largest U.S.-based association of corporations focused on addressing the challenges of climate change, with 42 members representing $2.8 trillion in market capitalization and over 3.8 million employees. Many different sectors are represented, from high technology to diversified manufacturing; from oil and gas to transportation; from utilities to chemicals." [1]
