Asia may represent an increasingly large chunk of global economic activity and greenhouse gas emissions but the institutional infrastructure for Asian investors to weigh in on the issue of climate change is still in its infancy.

the foundation of the Asia Investor Group on Climate Change (AIGCC) was announced, a large number of baby steps have been taken according to Alexandra Tracy, chairman of the
Association for Sustianaiable and Responsible Investment in Asia, which provides AIGCC's secretariat.
