How can I effectively respond if my company says it can’t do more on climate policy?

In our Employee Action At Work Guide, ClimateVoice founder Bill Weihl — a corporate sustainability veteran and someone previously in the Chief Sustainability Officer seat — has weighed in on the common responses you may hear from executives on why companies don’t want to, shouldn’t, or can’t do more on climate policy. Read through these rebuttals to help you prepare for this crucial conversation.

We recommend equipping executives with clear policy briefings, aligning them with peer companies, and encouraging them to use their voices publicly. We also can provide advisory sessions when leadership has questions or needs guidance.
