How can organizations become a positive force to battle some of the world’s most pressing issues—including the climate crisis?
"Employees are your biggest partner. They are your allies in the long game. They are very aligned with the health of the enterprise and play a crucial role in driving sustainability initiatives."
"Business is the most influential institution of our day, ignored at your peril. We can’t solve any of our most important problems—climate, inequality, economic mobility—without business at the table."
But using it may amplify the ones you already have.
"If reducing carbon also cuts costs, boosts competitive advantage, improves financial performance, enhances employee satisfaction, and aids in recruiting and retention, why aren’t we progressing faster? What holds us back?"
"What we care about is advancing life around the world. This is our purpose. It affects every choice we make with respect to our assets; which businesses we will participate in and which we won’t participate in; and how we show up for our varied global stakeholders."
"If I were a CEO […] I would focus on the technologies, products, and innovations that would bring a competitive advantage for my company in a market that will go to zero emissions one way or another."
