Last week I attended the University of British Columbia’s Summer Institute in Sustainability.
I was featured as a guest blogger on Retail Prophet where I wrote about my experiences, hoping to inspire, motivate and encourage others to look at sustainability as the best way to create value for their business.
Below you will find the title for each of the 5 articles, as well as a link to the full post (The first article can also be found on my blog).
Day 1 – Sustainability: The Big Difference Small Business Can Make
Day 2 – Sustainability is the Business Challenge for the 21st Century
Day 3 – Does Sustainability need its own Marlboro Man?
Day 4- Sustainability: Business Case be Damned
Day 5- Three Big Ideas for Business Sustainability
Cheers,
Justin
