Global climate change poses enormous environmental challenges, and societies across the world have to adapt and innovate to further the goals of sustainability for present and future generations. The private sector especially must find new ways of doing business to align their practices with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by the international community. This handbook provides a comprehensive and holistic coverage of sustainability, bridging the gap between academic theory and business practices. Using a conceptually structured framework throughout, the book examines the latest academic research to summarize what environmental, social and economic sustainability actually means in different contexts. It shows how organizations benefit from it and identifies the critical emerging trends and disruptive forces that the private sector must contend with. Using numerous specific case studies and insights from industry leaders, the book shows how to strategically integrate sustainability into the organization, with extensive focus on policies, incentives, measures, operations, production, consumption, and lifecycle management. In this second of the 2-volume set, Volume 2 builds on the knowledge gained in the first volume by: • Examining sustainability modelling and change management • Offering innovative practices to further sustainability such as developing and managing a sustainability portfolio; the sustainability life cycle; and ways of execution • Detailing specific business practices including sustainability design and development; sustainability governance; continuous sustainability improvement; sustainability tagging, and outsourcing For researchers, students, and businesspeople at all levels and sectors this handbook is an essential reference of the latest sustainability tools and methodologies required to adapt and innovate towards sustainability. Step-by-step guidance on key procedures and methodologies Learning tools including glossary, literature reviews, summaries, taxonomy Extensive coverage of sustainability-related case studies and lessons learned
