Companies deal with the topic of “sustainability” in very different ways – sometimes it’s the elephant in the room that everyone eagerly ignores.
Sometimes the metaphor of the tree that is thriving and already bearing its first fruit is more accurate. But almost, the topic is present. After all, we are currently experiencing nothing less than the start-up phase of the “sustainability revolution”, which is changing our world “with the magnitude of the industrial revolution, but (…) the speed of the digital revolution” (Al Gore). This development leaves almost no corporate footprint untouched. Not only global supply chains, but also regional economic networks must be consistently aligned with sustainability goals.
