| Summary: | This paper addresses the concept of Zones of Responsibility and the interaction between
key agency groups regarding the Greenhouse Debate. Focus is given to four key agencies:
Corporate Business, Government, Accountancies, and The General Public, with the
perceived responsibilities of each group explored in relation to one another. The paper
explores these interactive dynamics by means of qualitative and quantitative research,
and by way of a Case Study examination of the Kingsnorth Power Facility and the
subsequent CCS debate. It ultimately concludes with the inadequacies perpetuated by the
current system of reliance, with the agency relationships summated through a Model of
Dependent Agency. The model raises questions, and offers a potential silver lining to the
Environmental CSR dilemma in the UK.
