WBCSD and IUCN call on governments to commit to concrete action in Rio+20
In a letter to the national negotiators, the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) and the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) strongly pressed governments to commit to concrete action at the United Nations Rio+20 Conference on Sustainable Development. Importantly the letter urges governments to strengthen paragraph 24 of the Zero Draft Document by including the explicit requirement for companies to adopt standardized, rules-based sustainability reporting.
