Companies lie at the heart of the climate crisis and are both
culpable for, and vulnerable to, its impacts. Rising social and
investor concern about the escalating risks of climate change are
changing public and investor expectations of businesses and, as a
result, corporate approaches to climate change. Dominant corporate
norms that put shareholders (and their wealth maximization) at the
heart of company law are viewed by many as outdated and in need of
reform. Companies and Climate Change analyzes these developments by
assessing the regulation and pressures that impact energy companies
in the UK, with lessons that apply worldwide. In this work, Lisa
Benjamin shows how the Paris Agreement, climate and energy law in
the EU and the UK, and transnational human rights and climate
litigation, are regulatory and normative developments that
illustrate how company law can and should act as a bridge to
progressive corporate climate action.
