A simple way to cut your carbon footprint

When polled, 92 per cent of CEOs said that sustainability was a critical foundation for business success. Yet only 48 per cent said they are actively integrating it into their operations - and just 21 per cent believed that their organisation was playing a critical role in reaching sustainable development goals.
