84 3. The OECD Guidelines for Multinational Corporations The OECD Guidelines for Multinational Corporations is a multilaterally agreed and comprehensive code of responsible business conduct that governments have committed to promoting. Its human rights chapter was drawn from the UNGPBHR and thereby similarly provides that enterprises should: 1. Respect human rights, which means they should avoid infringing on the human rights of others and should address adverse human rights impacts with which they are involved. 2. Within the context of their own activities, avoid causing or contributing to adverse human rights impacts and address such impacts when they occur. 3. Seek ways to prevent or mitigate adverse human rights impacts that are directly linked to their business operations, products or services by a business relationship, even if they do not contribute to those impacts. 4. Have a policy commitment to respect human rights. 5. Carry out human rights due diligence as appropriate to their size, the nature and context of operations and the severity of the risks of adverse human rights impacts. 6. Provide for or co-operate through legitimate processes in the remediation of adverse human rights impacts where they identify that they have caused or contributed to these impacts.414 B. Responsibility in the Context of Climate Change 1. Application of the UNGP-BHR The corporate responsibility to respect human rights includes the responsibility to avoid causing or contributing to adverse human rights impacts through harm to the environment and our climate system.415 Employing the foundational and 414 OECD Guidelines, supra note 341. 415 Framework Principles on Human Rights and the Environment, supra note 354.
