YPNation contributor Tay Wiles takes a look at a Pew study that surveyed corporate executives' perceptions on climate change and energy use:
"The report, which is a product of the Pew Research Center’s Global Climate Change project, highlights results from a 65-question survey on perceptions of climate change and efforts to reduce energy use that Pew conducted with 100 companies. A few of the success stories include IBM, Dow Chemical, Toyota, PepsiCo and Best Buy, which estimates that in 2008 its sales of EPA Energy Star products saved customers $90 million in electricity bills. Toyota holds “treasure hunts” periodically, during which its employees scrutinize plant procedures in search of opportunities to be more energy efficient. Dow estimates that efforts toward energy efficiency since 1994 have saved the company $8.6 billion."
