Abstract

Businesses are increasingly joining together as part of climate alliances to accelerate the transition away from fossil fuels. But these alliances raise antitrust issues: When competitors collaborate, it can come at the expense of customers or workers. To mitigate these concerns, climate alliances need to invest in voluntary disclosure to build trust among policymakers and the public.
