How to profit from being sustainable as a business? Are Profit and Sustainability really going together? This will be the topic in a new series over the next months.
Let us get started with a quick review of the Google search results in order to get a first look at what other bloggers have written about Profit and Sustainability: Google search Profit and Sustainability
Here is a list of the search results I found interesting:
- Jeff Swartz from Timberland: Can profit and sustainability go together?
- Profit from Sustainability? from Martin Brown back in 2008
- Marc Gunther on his blog: Can companies profit from Sustainability
- Bob Siegel on Triple Pundit: Does Sustainability Increase Profits or Not?
I am currently researching the topic in more detail and would appreciate if you had any other interesting links to blogger that have written about this relationship of Profit and Sustainability. I will also look into more formal research on this over the next few days.
Thanks a million.

What about looking at my e-book?  ;http://responsibleprocurement.dk/knowledge/free/understand/

I will do that. But I am a big fan of researching it myself in order to understand the relationship a lot better.
On the e-book: It seems to be focused on responsible procurement. Or do you have a wider view on Sustainability and business profits in there as well?
