NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Alcoa (NYSE:AA) announced today that it has joined with a group of
businesses and institutional investors in a call to action for the U.S.
government to establish a national policy on climate change.
The group, organized by Ceres and its Investor Network of Climate Risk,
represents dozens of institutional investors managing $4.4 trillion in
assets and a number of leading U.S. companies, including Alcoa.
Ceres, whose goal is to advance corporate responsibility among its
coalition members, worked with the businesses and institutional
investors to formulate the call to action and announced its intentions
