The ICC Green Economy Roadmap
This first ICC Green Economy Roadmap –
containing contributions from experts from around the globe brought together in
a two year process – is widely read by business, policy and other stakeholder
groups worldwide, both within and outside ICC’s international membership.
Ten conditions for a transition towards a “green economy”
The
Roadmap represents a comprehensive and multidisciplinary effort to clarify and
frame the concept of “green economy” and promote a more common understanding.It highlights the essential role of
business in bringing solutions to common global challenges and sets out 10 conditions needed for a “green
economy” in which “economic growth and environmental responsibility work
together in a mutually reinforcing fashion while supporting progress on social
development.” These 10 conditions are:
- Open and competitive markets
- Metrics, accounting, and reporting
- Finance and investment
- Awareness
- Life cycle approach
- Resource efficiency and decoupling
- Employment
- Education and skills
- Governance and partnership
- Integrated policy and decision-making
Please see the annex for the best practice examples.
We
welcome continuous feedback on the Roadmap so that we can collectively build it
as a platform for future action and collaboration.
