abstract = "From a business perspective, climate change mitigation offers
certain opportunities that drive the market for new business, and
presents an opportunity to engage in Corporate Social
Responsibility (CSR). In this study, we examine the motivation for
companies in Latin America to implement Clean Development
Mechanism (CDM) projects, whether CDM encourages the adoption of
CSR practices, and the benefits companies gain from adopting such
practices. The data are taken from a survey of project developer
companies in Brazil, Mexico and Peru. The results show that
government influence and/or incentives have been very low. The
benefits of participating in such projects include being viewed as
industry leaders in the country and improving corporate
reputation.",
