Sustainable Business: Key Issues is the first comprehensive
introductory-level textbook to address the interface between
environmental challenges and business solutions to provide an
overview of the basic concepts of sustainability, sustainable
business, and business ethics. Fully updated for the third edition
to take into account recent developments and trends, such as the
climate emergency, Covid-19 and supply chain sustainability, this
textbook introduces students to the background and key issues of
sustainability and suggests ways in which these concepts can be
applied in business practice. Though the book takes a business
perspective, it is interdisciplinary in its nature and draws on
knowledge from socio-economic, political, and environmental
studies, thereby providing a critical understanding of
sustainability in the changing paradigm of global business. It goes
beyond the conventional theories of sustainability and addresses
critical issues concerned with population, consumption, and
economic growth. It discusses realistic ways forward, in particular
the circular economy and Cradle to Cradle frameworks. The book is
both a theoretical and practical study guide for undergraduate and
postgraduate students of broad areas of sustainability, teaching
ways to recognize opportunities for innovation and entrepreneurship
at the intersection of environmental, economic, ethical, and social
systems. It takes a strategic approach in applying the power of
business methods and policy to address issues of global importance
such as climate change, poverty, ecosystem degradation, and human
rights. This textbook is essential reading for students of
business, management, and sustainability courses. It is written in
an engaging and accessible style, with each chapter including case
studies, discussion questions, end of chapter summaries, and
suggestions for further reading.
