Over 150 global companies support legal framework to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in order to prevent climate catastrophe. They published a statement in the Financial Times indicating that the time to act on this problem is now.

Some of the world's largest firms -- including Coca-Cola, General Electric, Shell, Nestlé, Nike, DuPont, Johnson & Johnson, British Airways and Shanghai Electric -- said that the scientific evidence for climate change is "now overwhelming" and that a legally binding agreement "will provide business with the certainty it needs to scale up global investment in low-carbon technologies."
