AN increasing number of global companies are addressing the problems caused by greenhouse gas emissions.
In a report by US investment organisation Ceres, 76 US and 24 non-US top 100 companies were profiled, giving most credit to those with a sustained commitment to controlling emissions.
On a 100-point scale, BP scored 90 points, with ExxonMobil on 35. DuPont was the highest scoring US company, having reduced its greenhouse gas emissions by 72 per cent in the past 15 years.
