Policy on Climate Change
The ICMM Council approved its policy on climate change in October 2009.
The International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM) recognizes that comprehensive and sustained global action is required to reduce the scale of human-induced climate change and to adapt to its impact.
During 2009 ICMM’s Council of CEOs, which consists of 19 Chief Executive Officers of many of the world’s largest mining and metals companies, undertook a review of the climate change issue.
The discussion was not always easy. However, a consensus emerged on what ICMM should be offering to others at this time.
