I am glad to hear that a number of companies in the U.S. are challenging the Chamber of Commerce on their position. Inspite of our Canadian Conservative Party gov’t’s lack of action and leadership I can’t understand why businesses would choose ignore the benefits of going green and thereby fall behind their competitors who are doing so. Companies, especially new ones, in China and India have a huge advantage by learning from the mistakes made by the companies in developed countries.
