  • 1.  Business Case Against Sustainability

    Posted 03-31-2014 11:27
    Hello ONErs,

    I'd like to find a recent document (news article, CEO interview or
    similar) making the case against corporate sustainability, triple-bottom
    line, etc. Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    Here's the lead sentence from the landing page:  BSR/GlobeScan of 700+ corporate sustainability executives in companies worldwide shows decreasing levels of collaboration between sustainability functions and other core corporate functions.


    It isn't exactly the case against sustainability, but it is a report on executive attitudes and the challenges of the transformation to sustainability.

    Let us know if this is the type of thing you were looking for!


    Cheers!
