Climate change is a widespread global phenomenon that has far-reaching consequences for various economic sectors, including business. The article examines corporate response to climate change within Bangladesh's business sector. This study provides a comprehensive review of the existing literature on the effects of climate change on companies operating in Bangladesh.
The findings suggest that the corporate sector in Bangladesh is showing a growing awareness of the effects of climate change and is introducing measures to mitigate the problem. However, the efforts are still insufficient, and more needs to be done to mitigate the impact of climate change on businesses. The study recommends that businesses in Bangladesh should take a more proactive approach to climate change by integrating sustainability into their operations and adopting green business practices.
Overall, this study highlights the urgent need for businesses to address climate change and take proactive measures to build resilience to its impacts.
Introduction
Literature Review
Concept of Corporate Climate Change
Reason for Corporate Climate Change
When these fossil fuels are burned, they release greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere. In addition, an important contributor to climate change is the use of energy in industrial operations, which results in the emission of greenhouse gases. Although industrial activities are required to produce goods and provide services, these processes are also a substantial contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions (Masuma, Hassan, & Jahan, 2019).
When these fuels are burned, they release carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, contributing to global warming and climate change. A large number of businesses rely on transportation to transport both products and people, which often requires the use of fossil fuels that lead to greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, transportation is a major contributor to the problem of climate change caused by business as it is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions (Shamima Haque, 2010).
When these fuels are burned, they contribute to the emission of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and other gases into the atmosphere, which in turn contributes to global warming.
Corporate Climate Change in Bangladesh
As a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions and impacts on the environment and natural resources, land use has a major effect on corporate climate change (Johnston, 2008). The loss of natural resources such as water and land can also contribute to corporate climate change. Corporate climate change in Bangladesh's business industry is an emerging issue and many companies have begun to take steps to reduce their carbon footprint and increase their resilience to climate impacts (Shamima Haque, 2010).
Renewable energy: The use of renewable energy is an effective way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Collaboration: Collaboration with other businesses, government agencies and non-governmental organizations is essential to address the challenges of climate change in Bangladesh. Overall, the business industry in Bangladesh has an important role to play in addressing climate change.
By taking action to reduce their environmental footprint and increase their resilience to climate impacts, companies can help protect their operations and contribute to a more sustainable future for all (Masuma, Hassan, & Jahan, 2019).
