The latest assessment of 17 global information and technology (IT) companies by Greenpeace reveals signs of climate leadership and also gives penalty points for inaction, within a sector which could transform the market for clean energy.

This in turn gives them a strong incentive to advocate for policies which reduce carbon pollution.
