Kurzbeschreibung

Sustainability has become one of the most important social issues worldwide. The requirement of sustainability is rooted in the finite nature of the world's resource extraction and pollution absorption capacity, and in the still unresolved issue of intra- and intergenerational equity and the fundamental threat to life posed by species extinction. Building on this, the material throughput of the global economy is fundamentally limited in terms of sustainability; combined with fundamental principles of equity, this has far-reaching implications for all stakeholders. Against the background of the limited material throughput, operational sustainability management by a company is therefore an important prerequisite for limiting the world's resource extraction and pollution absorption capacity and for helping to ensure that the exploitation of people and the extinction of other living beings does not become entrenched or progress further as a result of short-term profit-seeking. At the same time, it is precisely these limitations and sustainable action that can open up new prospects for companies in terms of sales and earnings growth.
