TAKING THE LONG VIEW:
THE ‘FOREVER LEGACY’ OF CLIMATE CHANGE
It's hard enough to get people to think about what might happen to our planet in the year
2100, but it's even harder to think about what might happen just a couple of centuries later.
Recent research shows that we need to think about what could happen 200 or 300 years
from now if we don't stop putting greenhouse gases into the air. It might seem strange to
use the word "urgent" for something that won't happen for hundreds of years, but the truth
is that if we don't stop polluting, it will change the planet in a big way for thousands of years
to come. So it's really important that we start doing something about it now, even if we
won't see the efects in our lifetime.
WHAT IS SUSTAINABLE INNOVATION?
“Sustainable innovation involves making intentional changes to a
company’s products, services, or processes to generate long-term
social and environmental benefts while creating economic profts
for the frm. That defnition comes from researcher Richard Adams,
who reviewed academic and industry research on the topic.”
