Driving Sustainability II : Business dependency on eco-friendly practices

Details

In the second part of our sustainability discussion, we look at what extent businesses today are dependent on eco-friendly practices. We examine how this dependency can be increased, in order to push corporations to do more towards improving their sustainability initiatives.

We examine lessons from different parts of the world and see how they can be applied in business. China, Taiwan and Hong Kong are great examples of the effects of unsustainable industrialization.
