The true cost of (not) going green – The business of environmental sustainability
Listen to this episode
But what does it take to gain industry compliance with ambitious international legislative goals for environmental sustainability? And what will it mean if we fail?
In episode #16 of Campus 10178, the ESMT Berlin podcast, we speak with Heike Hess of the International Association of Natural Textile Industry (IVN) and Alyssa Jade McDonald-Baertl, a former board member of the German Federation of Sustainable Economy (BNW). We discuss the great challenges of sustainability and green economy initiatives. These include encouraging a holistic approach to sustainable industry, demanding transparency in supply chain management, creating standards for green production, enforcing business compliance, and innovating for sustainable futures. Also in this paradigm shift: how we must educate diverse stakeholders on the strong business case (and the moral imperative) for going green.
