Tonight I read a forum on sustainability in business. The initial question was: Are more distributors creating internal sustainability initiatives? If yes, why is this happening now. Most of the contributors answered yes. The reasoning was very widespread. The main point was cost and demand. Customers want more sustainable options, but distributors don't want to pay for them. The distributors solution for this is to get the products in demand and not worry about down the road because of the expense. This solution, however, is directly clashes with the principles of sustainability. The other reason contributors brought up was education. The more educated we become about sustainability, the better we can incorporate it. This seemed to be the ultimate goal for most companies.
I chose this article to explore another angle of sustainability in real life situations. The more outside references and knowledge I can bring into my writing about sustainability, the more credible it is. I also was interested in hearing why or why not people are considering sustainability. It is something I have considered writing about before, and more information is helpful.
