Ben Cashore, Irene Henriques, Bryan Husted, Rajat Panwar, Jonatan Pinkse & I have co-authored a paper that seeks to reorient the business case so that it encourages more corporate actions that are for, and not against, achieving sustainability. You can find it featured in the Summer 2021 issue of
Stanford Social Innovation Review:
Reorient the Business Case for Corporate Sustainability (SSIR)This article offers additional perspective in what we think/hope is a burgeoning movement to get beyond simple market solutions to the social & environmental problems that plague us and even threaten our continued existence. We hope you'll not just read it, but also provide your perspective. SSIR has been home to several recent articles in this vein, and the platform allows for comments. Please do chime in, if you get a chance.
Thanks,
Mike
