`Most companies still don't have a clue about the full extent of their impacts on the environment - let alone the full monetized cost of those impacts. The eight case studies provide an
invaluable starting point in terms of accounting more intelligently for those impacts.'Jonathon Porritt, Founder Director, Forum for the Future
`A comprehensive and wide-ranging series of case studies that collectively make the business case for connected reporting, while providing a rich source of practical advice on how to make
sustainability part of an organization's DNA.' Lord Sharman of Redlynch OBE, Chairman, Aviva plc
If businesses and other organizations are to meet the many and complex challenges of sustainable development, then they all, both public and private, need to embed sustainability considerations
into their decision-making and reporting. However, the translation of this aspiration into effective action is often inhibited by the lack of systems and procedures that take sustainability
into account.
Accounting for Sustainability: Practical Insight will help organizations to address these issues
In-depth cases studies from Aviva, BT, the Environment Agency, EDF Energy, HSBC, Novo Nordisk, Sainsbury's and West Sussex County Council show in detail how accounting for sustainability works
in practice in a wide range of organizational contexts.
