Since then it has merged with another organisation - the World Industry Council for the Environment (WICE), set up by the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) - and has become a powerful player in the international trade system with members including Shell International, Rio Tinto, Monsanto and Mitsubishi. The WBCSD, while claiming to champion sustainable development and environmental issues, is at the same time an active voice against the regulation of transnational corporations, for deregulation on trade and environmental issues, and the voluntary approach.
