Learning Sustainability Step by Natural Step
The Natural Step® model for sustainability has gained international endorsement from some of the world’s most respected scientists, business people, and community leaders. It provides an elegant intellectual framework that enables people from widely differing points of view to reach agreement on a common approach to sustainable development. Grounded in both hard science and organizational practice, some of the world’s most progressive organizations utilize this highly effective methodology. This presentation will examine key global drivers of unsustainability and insecurity, explore the framework for sustainability, and provide concrete examples of how more sustainable operating practices drive innovation and enhance value creation in such leading organizations as Nike, Starbucks, CH2MHILL, the global engineering firm, and Whistler Resort, the internationally-acclaimed mountain resort community.
