Full story: Business Leaders Call for Rules on Carbon Reporting

A coalition of leading UK businesses, environmental charities and MP’s known as The Aldersgate Group are calling for standardised rules on carbon emissions for all firms to follow. At present the information reported is not comparable due to different calculation methods, this undermines the competitive advantage that should accrue to companies with good carbon reporting and control.

Many firms are still failing to publish data on their carbon emissions, according to the Carbon Disclosure Project; it is believed that investors have a responsibility to increase pressure on firms to report on their environmental impacts.
