Inspired by the Magna Carta, the ‘Terra Carta’ (Earth Charter) calls on CEOs from around the world to engage and play their part in leading the global transition to a low-carbon future by 2030.
On Monday, at the One Planet Summit in Paris, Prince Charles launched the Terra Carta — a charter that offers the basis of a recovery plan to 2030 that “works in harmony with Nature’s own economy, rather than against it.”
A year after the launch of his Sustainable Markets Initiative (SMI) at the World Economic Forum in Davos, the Prince of Wales — a lifelong environmentalist and heir to the British throne — is using the charter to urge big business, industry and the financial worlds to commit to the plan that he hopes will “reunite people and planet,” with nearly 100 actions to become sustainable by 2030.
