Private Sector Called Upon to Disrupt “Business-As-Usual” at COP 23

“I am asking you to misbehave…” This was UN Secretary-General António Guterres’ plea to business during his opening of the High-Level Meeting of Caring for Climate, held during COP 23 — the annual UN climate conference — in Bonn last week. Generally, when the words “misbehave” and “business” appear together, we expect to hear about business behaving badly. But for the Secretary-General, this was an enthusiastic call to action for companies everywhere to disrupt “business-as-usual” on climate action and call on Governments to ramp up policy ambition.
