Australian mining giant BHP is set to pull out of the World Coal Association and is threatening to leave the Minerals Council of Australia over differences on climate change policy.
 |
| BHP Billiton said the World Coal Association had "narrower activities of benefit to BHP". |
The company has published a 22-page report outlining key climate and energy policy differences between it and several of the lobby groups it is a member of.
The review has found material differences between BHP's position and the position of the Minerals Council of Australia (MCA), the US Chamber of Commerce and the World Coal Association (WCA).
BHP said it has reached a preliminary view to exit the WCA, with a final decision due by the end of March.
