Green sustainability, what does it mean? One of the most influential definitions comes from the World Commission on Environment and Development held by the United Nations in 1983 and is defined as: Sustainable development meeting the needs of the present without compromising future generations’ ability to meet their own.
As individuals are becoming more conscious, businesses are as well. Green sustainability has progressed beyond just development and has now been integrated into many businesses. This refers to the triple bottom line or taking into account people, planet, as well as profit in the business practices. It is not enough for a company to just generate a profit anymore, it must also consider the impact on our society and also protecting the environment.
