It’s good for the planet… but what’s in it for them?
• Mandate for radical innovation
• New relationships with customers
• Leadership

in summary…
• Need to pay off our existing environmental overdraft and
build up natural capital
• Natural resources will only become more constrained as
the population grows
• Most businesses won’t be doing anything
• Learn from your social sustainability approach and seek
to leave the environment better then when you found it
• It’ll pay off through radical innovations, new relationships
with customers and leadership
