„Green“ markets are growing markets

    A 2017 study by the German Environment Agency
    (Umweltbundesamt) shows that the market share of
    environmentally friendly products (consumer products) has
    increased from
                        3,6 % in 2012
                     to 7,6 % in 2015.

    The most important increases were measured in organic food and
    energy-efficient cars.

In a nutshell

  •   There are many tools that can help you and your business in
      order to integrate and manage sustainability aspects!

  •   But each sustainability strategy and its implementation must
      be tailored to the individual company’s needs. There are no
      ‘one-size-fits-all’-solutions, you need to take into account the
      specific circumstances and the culture(s) of each business.

  •   You should be patient. Sustainability (management) is an
      ongoing process – if we are being honest: it is a process that is
      never fully completed.

  •   If possible: include different people and groups (stakeholders)
      when it comes to designing and implementing your
      sustainability strategy.
