Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to describe an initial seed of anti-climate change management (ACCM) in business practices and theory generation. Design/methodology/approach – An approach of ACCM is coined and a framework is outlined. Findings – Two interconnected levels of ACCM may be distinguished. Research limitations/implications – A recent UN-report indicates the timing is ripe to link the global and business levels together on the agendas of practitioners and scholars. Practical implications – ACCM suggests a major twist in business practices and theory generation from being only business-oriented, and in part environment-oriented, to being planet-oriented as well. Originality/value – ACCM assists in repositioning and expanding the boundaries of current chain management approaches considered in business practices and theory generation. It also contributes to linking business and non-business research disciplines together. Furthermore, it stresses the requirement of “bottom-up” and “top-down” approaches so as to highlight the connection between local practices and global sustainability.
