Abstract
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Assessment Report has depicted that the world will be much warmer by the next century as compared to the pre-industrialization era. It has been forecasted that rising global warming levels can have devastating results which will be beyond any reparable capacity. The process of industrialization in the name of urbanization and modernization, is adding more negativity instead of leading us to a new world. If the impact of corporate activities with respect to climate and ecology is not considered, it may render all our previous efforts towards conservation of ecological balance as futile, whether it may be in the form of high level agreements such as Kyoto Protocol, Sustainable Development Goals, Paris Agreement 2015 of voluntary efforts such as the Nationally Determined Contributions. This paper aims to understand the need and concern of the corporate sector towards climate change. Stakeholder approach methodology was involved along with extracting data through questionnaires, active discussions, participatory models and secondary evidences.
