Prince Charles has said businesses must lead the way alongside governments in tackling the climate emergency. Before the start of the G7 summit in Cornwall on Friday, he told a gathering of political and business leaders that private-sector cash and knowhow was essential, and businesses needed strong policy signals from government. The Terra Carta transition coalitions are an important next step to help drive sustainable finance. Among the topics the business leaders will raise at the G7 are ways to spur greater investment in clean technologies and projects. The heads of government are not expected to come up with detailed plans or policies on cutting emissions, but will affirm long-term goals.
