May 11, 2004. Chris Mottshead, BP. Mottershead gave this slide presentation at the Climate Group meeting in Toronto. In his presentation, he outlines 16 new business opportunities for BP and other companies, with a strategy to widen those “wedges” to real businesses.
The longer version of this analysis can be found in the July/August 2004 edition of Foreign Affairs by Sir John Browne, Group Chief Executive of BP, in “Beyond Kyoto.” He argues for a similar cap and trade approach, combined with technology innovation and public investment to take the policy discussions into the real world of business opportunity.
