CPE Positions on Climate Change
  • flowersCPE must address the political realities of the debate on various climate change initiatives and their possible impacts on our business
  • There must be a balanced and ongoing debate on the science of climate change that is both open and rigorous, to provide a solid information base for decision-makers
  • In both political and scientific considerations decision-makers need to understand the full economic and social impacts of their actions around climate change
  • Any climate change initiative must specify the actions needed to reduce CO2 emissions, and where these emission reductions will occur, for every reduction milestone that is proposed
  • Carbon capture and sequestration is a key technology that will allow for continued use of economic carbon-based fuels and CO2 reductions without economic dislocation
