Item type:Publication, Organizational Responses to Societal Demands and their implications for Environmental PerformanceGlobal Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions continue to rise despite mitigation efforts. We investigate how three archetypes of corporate responses to climate change, namely compromising, avoidance, and manipulation, relate to actual emissions reduction. We perform panel data regression analysis using 5,431 firm year observations from S&P500 companies between 2011 to 2021. We also look at the moderating effect of reputational risk. Our findings show that compromising is associated with reduction in emissions over time. We also show that manipulating organizations change their behavior when facing high reputational risk. The rest of the findings are inconsistent. We contribute to the investigation of the organizational action – climate change nexus. Further, we point to policy makers and social movement organizations workable leverage points for GHG emissions reduction.Type:conference paper - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Organizational Responses to Societal Demands and their Implications for Environmental PerformanceInstitutional theory has overlooked the implications of organizational responses to societal demands. We investigate how three conventional corporate responses to the demand for climate change action, including compromise, avoidance, and manipulation, relate to actual emissions reduction. We also examine the moderating effect of reputational risk on these relationships. Our analysis is founded on panel data regression of 5,431 firm-year observations of S&P500 companies between 2011 and 2021. Our results show that compromising is associated with a reduction in emissions over time. We find marginal evidence that avoiders increase emissions and that, under high reputational risk, organizations manipulate more and consequently increase their emissions. Our study contributes to institutional theory by connecting organizational responses to societal expectations with environmental performance. Our findings vindicate the promise of corporate sustainability strategies in reducing carbon emissions.Type:conference paper - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
