The Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges of Turkey (TOBB) President M. Rifat Hisarcıklıoğlu said that as a business community, they see the Paris Agreement as the basis for green transformation and green development, and that ratification of the agreement is a touchstone of the goal of leaving a greener world for future generations.​

Hisarcıklıoğlu said in a statement:

“The Paris Climate Agreement, which we attach strategic importance to as the Turkish business community, was published in the Official Gazette on October 7th and approved by Turkey.

We would like to thank our President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and the Turkish Parliament for enabling our country to become a party to the Paris Climate Agreement.

As a business community, we see the Paris Agreement as the basis for green transformation and green development.

With this understanding, we must fight the climate crisis by joining hands with the public-private sector by protecting our natural resources.

With the support of the public, we should reduce carbon emissions, meet the zero waste target, adopt sustainable and green production, and prefer renewable energy sources.

In this context, we believe it is important that the roadmap and action plans are identified and implemented in public-private cooperation.

We aim to leave a greener world for future generations with the goal of green transformation and green development.”
