Chinese companies on board
Three major Chinese companies — China Mobile (the world’s largest mobile phone operator, with 420 million customers), Suntech (the world’s third largest solar energy supplier), and Broad Air Conditioning (a manufacturer of air conditioning units) — have agreed to join The Climate Group, according to this press release. This is good news for the environment, as joining means that the three companies are committing to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in accordance with the aims of the Group.
China Mobile is start-ownd, so presumably their participation could not have occurred without official Government permission.
