What is Sustainability Planning?
Becoming more sustainable is an opportunity to innovate, make a difference and grow.
A sustainability plan is simply a set of actions that provide a roadmap for achieving long-term goals and documents strategies to for an organization to grow and thrive in an everchanging world. It considers community, financial, and organizational sustainability and how it relates to people, planet, and prosperity. This is often referred to as the triple bottom line.
Traditionally businesses have focused only on the financial bottom line, with social and environmental issues not considered or perhaps even viewed as being in conflict. However, businesses are quickly realizing that environmental, social, and governance issues are not is conflict with profitability, but rather vital for the long-term prosperity of the organization.
