Climate Change Working Group
BKSH & Associates Worldwide has partnered with the public relations firm Burson-Marsteller to form a Climate Change Working Group, thus becoming a leader in climate change policy. The B-M/BKSH Climate Change Working Group holds periodic events featuring outside speakers on climate change and global warming issues. The group tracks and informs clients on upcoming legislation, public opinion research and other inside knowledge regarding climate change that will impact their business. The B-M/BKSH Climate Change Working Group counsels clients on communications and policy changes that may affect them and ensures that their interests are represented in the climate change arena.
In undertaking this working group and efforts for our clients in Climate Change, BKSH brings together senior public affairs staff with direct energy and environmental policy experience on Capitol Hill and seasoned Washington professionals in both political parties familiar with the shaping of domestic policy at the highest levels of government.
