Climate Change: The Path Forward
We stand with every American seeking a cleaner, stronger environment—for today and tomorrow.

Our climate is changing and humans are contributing to these changes. Inaction is simply not an option.
Combating climate change will require citizens, government, and business to work together. American businesses play a vital role in creating innovative solutions to protect our planet.
A challenge of this magnitude requires collaboration, not confrontation, to advance the best ideas and policies. Together, we can forge solutions that improve our environment and grow our economy—leaving the world better for generations to come.

Climate change is a global challenge
We cannot solve this issue unilaterally. The U.S. Chamber supports U.S. participation in the Paris Agreement and is an official observer to the United Nations climate talks. We’re working with business groups and many other stakeholders around the world to ensure that the voice of business is heard on a range of issues – from technology cooperation and intellectual property to trade policy and supply chains.
Convening. Learning. Advocating.
As part of our ongoing dialogue with members across every industry, the U.S. Chamber has launched a Member Task Force on Climate Action to help us better understand the range of mechanisms, innovations, and internal processes that businesses are employing to tackle climate change.
