The Australian Business Roundtable on Climate Change was formed in 2004 by six of Australia’s largest businesses from a cross-section of industries. Its aim is to advance understanding of the business risks and opportunities associated with climate change and to work co-operatively on solutions to the issue.
The Roundtable commissioned CSIRO to quantify the impacts of climate change on the Australia. Allen Consulting Group provided economic modelling which detailed the cost to Australia to substantially reduce greenhouse gas emissions as part of an international response and the comparative costs of early and delayed action.
