We appreciated The Times’ recognition of the Pew Center on Global Climate Change’s role in providing a new and pragmatic voice in the climate change debate (editorial, Sept. 5). Through the companies that comprise our Business Environmental Leadership Council, we are working to find solutions to the challenge of climate change that will keep both the environment and the economy healthy.

To clarify one important point though, the Pew Center does not do any lobbying. We are committed to being a resource for information and knowledge on the issue of climate change--whether it is for the media, policymakers or other businesses with a stake in the debate--but we are not engaged in any direct lobbying effort.

Climate change is one of our generation’s greatest challenges. At the Pew Center we want to draw on the expertise of all sectors to both address the climate change problem and sustain economic growth, because climate change is serious business.
