Part of CWMA’s ESG Journey Series which aims to help us learn more about what Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) is, why it matters to our industry, and guide us on considering and implementing best practices.

Planet & Profit: Not Mutually Exclusive

A Discussion on Bridging Profitability with Environmental Stewardship

The question of whether businesses can be profitable while being environmentally sustainable has been generally seen as mutually exclusive goals. But more and more organizations are challenging this notion, highlighting how thoughtful and focused actions can enable them to achieve both.

Let’s hear from organizations that show how a comprehensive sustainability strategy integrated into their wider corporate strategy derives great E, S and G benefits:

Deloitte: setting the stage on ESG adoption by organizations across Canada and in BC

Emterra: “We strive to demonstrate environmental leadership in everything we do”

ABC Recycling: “We’re making sure that we can get to the next generation and still be a family company, have our values in place, and still make a positive impact in the community”

London Drugs: “We know we won’t always be perfect – sustainability is a journey – but we hope you will join us in working towards better solutions for our stores, our community and our planet”

PLUS! More guests to be announced and we will include open discussion for others to share their ESG and sustainability journeys!
