Annex A2 OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises and Climate Change
The Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises are recommendations from governments to business on responsible business conduct.

The Guidelines thus have an important role to play in helping build international consensus and spread knowledge about advanced management practices in support of a low-carbon economy. This overview highlights recommendations which are relevant to business action to address climate change.
