We believe that a responsible and equitable transition to a low emissions economy is an opportunity to improve Australia’s prosperity.
We support the Paris Agreement & Australia’s commitment to it, including the objective to keep global warming to well below 2 degrees above pre-industrial levels.
Purpose and Vision
The Australian Climate Leaders Coalition (CLC) is a group of cross-sectoral Australian corporate CEOs supporting the Paris Agreement commitments and setting and implementing against public decarbonisation targets. The CLC is action-orientated and provides an open, confidential and authentic forum for CEOs to share the challenges of their decarbonisation journeys. It is inclusive, provides information and case studies, and CEOs undertake collaborative projects to accelerate their organisations towards a net zero carbon economy.

MEMBER COMMITMENTS
By joining the CLC, members have made the following commitment:
For the viability of our businesses, for the generations after us and for the country we love, we are ambitious for action on climate change. If we act now, we can forge a path to create a future that is low-emissions, positive for our businesses and economy, and inclusive for all Australians. We are committed to playing our part to make that future real. If we don’t, our competitiveness is at risk.
We take climate change seriously in our business:
- We support the Paris Agreement and Australia’s commitment to it, including the objective to keep global warming to well below 2 degrees above pre-industrial levels;
- We measure the greenhouse gas emissions associated with our environmental footprint and, if not already done, within 12 months of joining will set public emissions targets;
- We work with our suppliers and customers to encourage them to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions;
- We believe that a responsible and equitable transition to a low emissions economy is an opportunity to improve Australia’s prosperity; and
- We report each year on our progress towards Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions reduction and we will publicly launch a Climate Transition Plan for our organisation, in alignment with the timing required by the disclosure requirements to be developed by the AASB.
