Why is it that the biggest companies in every industry think that, by virtue of their size, they somehow occupy the moral high ground.
Witness KPMG, who have just issued a code of conduct for their suppliers, which 'requests' that suppliers adhere to certain environment policies in order to retain their relationship with the accountancy giants.
While it is admirable that KPMG are concerned about renewable energy, carbon footprints, the Brazilian rainforests and the continuing existence of the Guatemalan tree vole, the arrogance of such a move does astound me.
Companies of this size should really make sure they put their own house in order before dictating what anyone else should do.
