Andrew Winston: Going Green Is Good For Business
Environmental Strategist Andrew Winston visited Big Think this week to discuss how the business world can play a major role in dealing with climate change.
“Often what people call sustainability… the things that fall under that that are environmental or social challenges – there’s this assumption in business that trying to tackle these issues will be expensive… There’s a sense that green was somehow not good for business. It wasn’t out of nowhere but that’s really a dated view. We now have a situation where the challenges are so vast and the world is changing so fundamentally that the only path we have forward is to manage these issues.”
