Description

This book presents discussions with corporate practitioners on several topics around sustainability. Between May 2019 and November 2022, the author engaged in dialogues with Senior Executives representing major multinational corporations, overseeing their corporate sustainability endeavours. The thematic spectrum of these conversations encompassed diverse topics such as The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, Water-stressed regions, Ocean Plastic, Chemical Recycling, Renewable Energy, Sustainable Tourism, and the Just Transition, among others, with each episode concentrating on a singular subject. In this book supporting illustrations and graphs together with background references enrich the insights the conversations convey. The reader will learn about the sustainability challenges companies are facing and how they approach them. The book gives examples of sustainable solutions and international collaborations around greenhouse gas reduction, circular economy, restorative tourism as well as reducing plastic pollution and other global sustainability challenges.
