In Good Company

Copenhagen: 25 May 2009

The Centre for Social Markets (CSM) launched a film today profiling corporate leadership on climate change inIndia at the World Business Summit on Sustainable Development in Copenhagen.

While much of the focus of the Summit was on what western companies are doing, the film brought out just how much potential there is in India to lead a paradigm shift to a lowcarbon economy.

Called, In Good Company, the 55minute documentary tells the littleknown story of how Indian companies and entrepreneurs are beginning to respond to the climate challenge.

With India set to become one of the world’s top three emitters of greenhouse gases by 2015, the film is a timely reminder of the need to focus attention on how emerging markets will respond to a carbonconstrained global economy with all the risks and opportunities it implies.
