An Analysis of Sustainability in Business. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, June 2009, Pages: 140
The concern about climate change has increased the
importance and raised awareness of the concept of
sustainability. Painful choices in the
decision-making process of companies will be made to
reach a new sustainable path. This book shows the
importance of implementing sustainable practices in
business as an opportunity to reduce climate change
impacts and improve environmental/social quality.
While many companies are seeing today’s challenges as
opportunities and are successfully striving to pass
through the difficult transition from “business as
usual” to sustainable commerce,many others are not.
If companies want to work on sustainable practices,
they should put this goal at the core of their
businesses, as opposed to an additional effort apart
from their core concerns. This book demonstrates how
four sustainability indices have been motivating
Brazilian companies to achieve a sustainable path. It
also provides recommendations to assist Brazilian
companies to follow suit.
