Tom Werner: Why Business Isn't Waiting for COP21 Outcomes

Winston Churchill once said, "however beautiful the strategy, you should occasionally look at the results."

As the world's leaders meet in Paris for the COP21 conference, it's clear that a practical and sustainable climate change agreement is within reach. However, with negotiators working to establish international commitments that are achievable, the focus is seemingly on the "who" and "why" at the expense of the "how." I think this misses a significant opportunity, especially given the active participation of global business leaders.
