The Tata Group is facing up to the challenge of climate change and making it integral to its processes. It has made the preservation and regeneration of the environment an intrinsic part of its culture of corporate sustainability.

Coordinating and directing the climate change efforts of the Group's companies is Tata Quality Management Services (TQMS), a centrally administered organisation that draws on the experience and expertise of senior Tata leaders.

The broad idea is to develop a common approach to the critical questions confronting the Group's businesses on the environmental front, and formulating policies that can deal effectively with vital issues such as climate change.
