Climate change. Will you just see the risks? Or will you go Beyond The Line?”If you look at companies that have the best bottom line today, the ones that have the greatest stock value, increasingly you're going to see that there's an overlay to the companies that are being innovative on environmental strategies strategies and going green.” Kathleen Matthews, Vice President, Public Affairs, Marriott International

Hear experts from the Carbon Disclosure Project, Environmental Defense Fund, Forum for the Future, World Resources Institute and other organizations that have successfully partnered with companies to help them reduce their environmental impacts and increase their business performance.
