Sustainability
Understanding our responsibilities to planet, people, and ethical profitability
Overview
As a global company operating in a global ecosystem, we understand our responsibilities to the three pillars of environmental, social, and economic sustainability.
The impacts of climate change rightly put environmental sustainability at the top of our news feeds. But we know that sustainability goes beyond that to include social and economic sustainability.
We understand the significance - and the criticality - of the three pillars of sustainability. Environmental sustainability focuses on managing resources, while reducing emissions and pollution. Social sustainability is about people, requiring organisations to embrace equity, justice, and community issues. Economic sustainability is about balancing profit with the impact of economic activity.
In our estimation, the three pillars of sustainability are inseparable. They must be balanced and harmonious to enable a truly sustainable business.
At Shelton Fleming we understand our responsibilities to planet, people, and ethical profitability, and are fully committed to creating sustainable solutions.
