Abstract: There is no doubt that one of the most important challenges facing humankind is caring for our resources and the environment given that there would be no talk of life or the future without the spatial and physical conditions in which they inevitably take place. Climate change is a topic that has been examined from multiple perspectives, proof of it being a complex situation in which various agents could be called upon to intervene. In spite of it being a matter often attributed to nations, the private sector has now taken a fundamental role. Therefore, the objective of this study is to analyze the contributions of Latin American organizations in combatting climate change, reflecting upon whether said contributions truly act towards fulfilling international commitments actively and effectively.
