Sustainability / Corporate Responsibility
In business terms, sustainability refers to the production of goods and services taking into account long-term resource and value endurance. Corporate responsibility (often referred to as corporate social responsibility, or CSR) refers to business practices that encourage consideration of environmental, social, and ethical issues. Today, uncertainties around future energy and resource supplies are prompting some managers and executives to take proactive measures to ensure long-term sustainability. Seeing the same uncertainties, some consumers look for CSR commitments when buying products and services.
