BHP CEO Andrew Mackenzie gave a speech on Tuesday at a Financial Times’ Climate for Change speech held in London, in which he announced his company’s planned $400 million Climate Investment Program.

Whilst this announcement sends a positive message, I think the even more significant step is for the firm to strengthen the link between their executives`remuneration plans and achieving the planned emissions targets. That way we change behaviours which is the most important step towards a zero carbon future.
