Just doing some research, this may or may not be related to ACII, but here goes. -GM and Caterpillar are members of a business coalition dedicated to reducing greenhouse gas emissions that are tied to global warming. They are 2 of 27 members of the coalition.
This is news from 10 months ago. -Remember things take time, so 10 months in the business world is not a long time.

GM joins coalition fighting global warming
Nation's biggest automaker enlists along with Dow Chemical, PepsiCo

DETROIT - General Motors Corp. on Tuesday became the first automaker to join a business coalition dedicated to reducing greenhouse gas emissions that are tied to global warming.
The nation’s biggest automaker joined the United States Climate Action Partnership along with 13 other newcomers including Dow Chemical Co. and PepsiCo Inc. The partnership is an alliance of big business and environmental groups that in January told President Bush that mandatory emissions caps are needed to reduce the flow of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases into the atmosphere.
With Tuesday’s additions, there now are 27 members of USCAP, said John Files, a spokesman for the coalition.
“GM is very pleased to join USCAP to proactively address the concerns posed by climate change and applauds its members for recognizing the important role that technology can play in achieving an economy-wide solution,” GM Chairman and CEO Rick Wagoner said in a statement.
Companies that already had joined the partnership include Royal Dutch Shell PLC’s U.S. arm, London-based oil company BP PLC and Houston-based ConocoPhillips. Other members include General Electric Co., Alcoa Inc., DuPont Co., Caterpillar Inc. and Duke Energy Corp.

Caterpillar is mentioned in the last paragraph.
