Climate Change Societal Must Have
With the goal of limiting global temperature rise to 2°C above pre-industrial levels, the world must, by 2020, have energy, industry, agriculture and forestry systems that, simultaneously:
• Meet societal development needs
• Are undergoing the necessary structural transformation to ensure that cumulative net emissions* do not exceed one trillion tonnes of carbon. Peaking global emissions by 2020 keeps this goal in a feasible range
• Are becoming resilient to expected changes in climate.
* Anthropogenic CO2 emissions from preindustrial levels as outlined in the IPCC Working Group Fifth Assessment Report. One trillion tonnes carbon = 3.67 trillion tonnes CO2

WBCSD views on Climate Agreement
It drives business action toward low carbon
investments
It creates a structured contribution to climate
action
It enables ambitious national policies
&facilitates international cooperation
WBCSD supports a
global climate agreement towards
global net zero emissions within
the century

WBCSD views on Carbon Pricing
Carbon pricing is central to WBCSD
Vision 2050
Carbon pricing is the smart business approach
Carbon pricing should be global robust and stable
WBCSD supports global, robust and
stable carbon pricing1
1 Pricing carbon can be done through a range of instruments such as emissions trading scheme, regulatory standard or best available technology requirement, and the choice of instrument will depend on national and sectoral circumstances.
