The Carbon Pricing Journey. By Nigel Topping, We Mean Business, 5/28/15. We Mean Business and the World Bank have formed the "Carbon Pricing Leadership Coalition" and are working with CDP, CLG, WBCSD, IETA and others to collaborate with business, investment, and policy experts on developing the navigational tools to help understand more about future carbon prices -- how they could work, how they might evolve and most importantly, what they need to be to enable us to stay on course for a 2 degree future"..."Although many more businesses are calling for a price on carbon, it is time for the conversation to get more granular if we are to move from rhetoric to action. Very few businesses are explicit in their language about what level of carbon pricing they assume, what level they would like to see or what level would trigger significant investment in their value chains."
