Sustainability: business, life, environment

Supporters and critics continue to debate the ability to link the environmental and social responsibility to business profitability.  Without a definitive financial incentive, companies have historically been unreceptive to the idea of integrating sustainability concepts into core business practices for a non-return in investment.  However, recent trends tend to indicate that the business world may be changing their view, specifically when it comes to climate change.
 
Companies both large and small are beginning to evaluate the business sustainability risks  and longer-term value aspects of integrating eco awareness into their operations, business sustainability strategies, and product deliveries.  Climate action and business sustainability are now a top-line and bottom-line company focus. 

Top organizations, like Nike, are going beyond the ‘feel-good’ and implementing business sustainability plans that target specific emission reduction and process efficiency targets.  Nike was recently ranked atop Climate Counts' third annual corporate climate performance scorecard.  This scorecard recognizes companies for their climate effort s in the following areas:

•    Internal policy and public support of climate action.
•    Review of management plan.
•    Evaluation of performance related to company goals and targets.
•    Detail and transparency of reporting.
