Frequently Asked Questions
Is sustainability important to all organizations?
+Yes. Stakeholders such as regulators, employees, customers, suppliers and shareholders are increasingly focused on organizations' impact on the environment, employee well-being and the surrounding communities, and are demanding positive, responsible action and transparency with regard to progress. Increasingly, customers are choosing brands based on sustainability programs and actions, driving a wedge between brands that do and brands that don’t. Green investment capital is often directed at companies with proven sustainability track records as well. In addition, many corporations are requiring sustainability metrics from their partners and suppliers and are rebuilding their supply chains around sustainability. A dedicated effort to improve sustainability can be a differentiator for organizations in all of these areas. Learn more
