In the video above, Mike Robinson, GM’s vice president of sustainability & global regulatory affairs, explains our stance on climate change, why it’s important to get everyone at the table to talk long-term strategies, and what we are doing to take action against climate change.
In our 2012 Corporate Sustainability Report, we delve into more detail around our sustainability strategy, focusing on the following commitments to meet customer needs for efficient vehicles and significantly reduce the environmental impact of its products:
