The WBCSD is a coalition of international companies united by a shared commitment to the environment. It is based in Geneva and started off as the Business Council for Sustainable Development (BCSD) in 1990 to provide a business perspective on economic growth and sustainable development, prior to the Rio Summit in June 1992. In January 1995, BCSD was merged with the WICE (World Industry Council for the Environment) to form the WBCSD, which is now claimed to be the pre-eminent business voice on sustainable development issues.
