"America First" and "#sustainability" – both the concept and the industry – aren't the clearest bedfellows. But as my #circulareconomy colleague Jon Smieja notes, "Reading the America First policy agenda, at times, is like reading a blueprint for a future circular economy (despite the authors having no such intention)." What opportunities exist to harmonize aspects of these seemingly divergent philosophies, and how can sustainability leaders "advocate for policies that advance national self-reliance and create jobs while also fostering environmental stewardship and social equity?"

🌍 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗕𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗘𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗣𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲 Purpose is the underlying reason or intention behind an action, decision, or existence. It defines why something or someone exists, or the driving force behind what they aim to achieve. For businesses and organizations, purpose often goes beyond profit-making—it refers to the core mission or the impact they want to create in society. It’s essential to emphasize that responsible businesses have a non-negotiable duty to ensure that the products and services they create do not harm the environment or the communities where people live and work. Regardless of how a company defines its role—whether through CSR, ESG, Social Impact, or Philanthropy—this responsibility remains the same. Businesses must prioritize environmental protection, community well-being, and the development of sustainable solutions in every facet of their operations. This means companies are accountable for more than just profit; they must actively safeguard the ecosystems and societies they impact, aligning their strategies with long-term sustainability. The commitment to ethical practices and environmental stewardship is not optional but a core part of what it means to be a responsible and socially conscious organization. #Sustainability #BusinessEthics #CommunityResponsibility #Purpose #SustainableSolutions #CorporateResponsibility

The importance of #intersectionality in #sustainability is a crucial aspect for creating a green and equitable world. Yet it is not often discussed or viewed through this lens. There is an urgent need to address and tackle the shortcomings of the executions of the sustainable agenda and green deal. #esgwebinars #esgconsultancy #esgemployment #sustainablejob

Think Sustainability Always

Organizations / Govts / Individuals taking audacious goal on sustainability can start with the first step! Switch off the lights when not in use. What you do speaks more than what you say!

Last year, the NationSwell insights team released a report on the state of corporate sustainability. This Earth Month, check your progress against the ongoing macro trends, policy and regulatory developments (U.S. and E.U.), and pace-setting organizations. #corporatesustainability #sustainability #CSO #climateaction

Organizations that prioritize sustainability as a core focus are more likely to succeed in the long term. By interweaving sustainability with all aspects of their operations and decision-making processes, organizations can promote environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and economic viability simultaneously. This fosters a culture aligned with the principles of sustainable development, encouraging comprehensive and integrated practices. Let's make sustainability a driving force for success. #sustainability #environmentalstewardship #socialresponsibility #economicviability #sustainabledevelopment
