Commitments to clean Hong Kong's beaches, produce carbon-free energy from rice residues, and raise awareness of climate change in India are among the results of the first Clinton Global Initiative meeting in Asia.
"CGI Asia members have made commitments worth an estimated total value of US$185 million, to positively impact more than 10 million lives," Clinton said.
Clinton welcomed current and former heads of state and prominent regional business and non-profit leaders who pledged to address some of the world's most pressing challenges - climate change, food and water security, and deforestation.
"Asia has a strong history of social responsibility and we have a unique opportunity to work together in innovative and effective ways to achieve positive change during a time of great uncertainty for the world," said Clinton, whose wife, Senator Hillary Clinton has just been nominated to serve as Secretary of State in the incoming administration President-elect Barack Obama.
The Commitments to Action, made by members to affect positive change include the CGI's three areas of focus - education, energy and climate change, and public health.
The World Food Programme and partners made a far-reaching mega-commitment' includes six different CGI commitments involving eight countries and is valued at US$20 million dollars.
