REPORTING 78<br />
Asia ex-Japan results from the <strong>2007</strong> Carbon Disclosure<br />
Project reveal that: 1) a range of Asian companies are<br />
increasingly describing strategic business initiatives<br />
to curtail carbon emissions, 2) companies working<br />
on climate change strategies often rely on industry<br />
associations and global NGOs for guidance, 3) the<br />
degree of top management engagement is a critical<br />
determinant in the disclosure of carbon emissions<br />
and the development of formal initiative, 4) pictures<br />
of regional response characteristics are becoming<br />
apparent and 5) the quality and quantity of responses<br />
from Asia’s tech and telecoms companies is notable,<br />
while Asia’s banks and utilities lag their global<br />
counterparts.<br />
