Belda Member of Steering Board That Developed CEO Statement
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Alcoa Chairman Alain Belda joined 99 global business leaders last week
in calling for the Group of 8 (G8) leaders to take the lead on climate
change and to commit to halving emissions of greenhouse gases by 2050.
The set of policy recommendations were given to Japan Prime Minister
Yasuo Fukuda, executive chairman of the World Economic Forum, in advance
of the G8 summit scheduled for July 7-9 in Hokkaido, Japan. The
executives also requested that a successor treaty to the Kyoto Protocol
involve all major economies including the U.S., China and India to make
it effective.
“We know we must address climate change. We
may not have sorted out every detail, but we are willing to take a
leadership position and embrace open dialogue…that
will get us all to our common goals of protecting our world for future
generations,” Mr. Belda said.
