Description
This is a presentation describing Sustainable Development: Triple Bottom line.
? For the business enterprise, sustainable development means adopting business strategies and activities that meet the needs of the enterprise and its stakeholders today while protecting, sustaining and enhancing the human and natural resources that will be needed in the future.
-World Commission on Environment and Development
? Sustainable development is a pattern of resource use that aims to meet human needs while preserving the environment so that these needs can be met not only in the present, but in the indefinite future.

? It has become a cliché that environmental problems are substantial, and that economic growth contributes to them. ? The common response can be stricter environmental regulation, which often inhibits growth. ? The result can be a trade-off between healthy environment and healthy growth which would restrain business opportunities. ? However there are some forms of development that don’t lead to a trade-off but an improved environment with development that does not draw down on our environmental capital. ? It creates opportunities for suppliers of ‘green consumers’, developers of environmentally safer materials and processes, firms that invest in eco-efficiency, and those that engage themselves in social well-being.

? The concept of sustainable development needs to be incorporated into the policies and processes of a business if it is to follow sustainable development principles.
? It requires a new cultural orientation and extensive refinements to systems, practices and procedures. ? Developing an effective management framework for sustainable development requires addressing both decision-making and governance. It should be integrated into business planning and into MIS.
1. Perform a stakeholder analysis
2. Set sustainable development policies and objectives 3. Design and execute an implementation plan
4. Develop a supportive corporate culture
5. Develop measures and standards of performance 6. Prepare reports 7. Enhance internal monitoring processes
? For ABB, sustainability is about balancing economic success, environmental stewardship and social progress to benefit all their stakeholders. ? Sustainability considerations cover how they design and manufacture products, what they offer to customers, how they engage suppliers, how they assess risks and opportunities. ? ABB is a leader in power and automation technologies that enable utility and industry customers to improve performance while lowering environmental impact. The ABB Group of companies operates in around 100 countries and employs about 112,000 people.
? ABB meets target to reduce its use of energy by five percent per manufactured unit over two-year period. ? Major order won in 2007 to supply high-voltage direct current transmission for world’s largest offshore wind farm.
? New foundation set up to support underprivileged engineering students in several countries.
? Human rights policy approved to complement existing environmental, social, health and safety, and business ethics policies. ? ABB develops pilot projects to streamline road transport of products and select shipping on environmental criteria. ? 35 percent of ABB’s major suppliers are now externally verified to ISO 14001. ? ABB has a global network of more than 400 sustainability controllers and officers responsible for auditing and reporting performance
? Sustainability awards received in 16 countries....
? United States: An ABB cable link allows large ships in port to draw power from the Seattle grid rather than from diesel engines on board. Up to 35 tons of fuel as well as emissions are saved each stay. ? Argentina: Greenhouse gas emissions have been significantly reduced and productivity increased at the largest oil and gas field thanks to ABB’s power and automation solutions. ? Sweden: A wide range of ABB automation and power products and systems help a customer eliminate 170,000 tons of CO2 emissions a year at a huge paper mill. ? Switzerland: Improvements to production processes, alternative transportation methods and energy efficiency measures have cut ABB’s CO2 emissions by about 50 percent since 1990. ? India: ABB’s power and network management solutions are enabling Delhi’s metro rail network to run efficiently and are also helping to cut traffic congestion and pollution. And also have taken up sustainability initiatives in countries like South Africa, Turkey, China, Japan, UAE and many more.
? Germany: ABB is to supply the power equipment to connect the world’s largest offshore wind farm in the North Sea to the German grid, saving 1.5 million tons of CO2 emissions a year.
? Ireland: ABB participated in the first sustainable energy zone in Dundalk, which aims to ensure that 20 percent of electricity and heat used by 2010 is generated from renewable sources.
? Australia: High-efficiency motors and drives will be supplied to the largest desalination plant on the east coast, helping to secure water supplies, save the customer money and cut emissions. mitigate ? China: ABB completed the delivery of one of the largest district heating projects, which will ensure clean and energy-efficient heat and eliminate 500,000 tons of greenhouse gas emissions a year.
? Established in 1910
? 1975, entered into paperboards business ? 1985, entered into Nepal ? 1990, established IBD for exporting agri-commodities ? 2000, e-Chaupal and also entered into lifestyle retailing as Wills ? 2001, entered into food business
? In 2004, appeared in the list of Forbs as one of the `‘world’s best big companies’
? Water Balance
‘Water Positive’ in 2004. Water conservation and 100% Rain water harvesting. Managed 16mkl water through rainwater harvesting, where ITC consumes only 8mkl.
? Carbon Footprints -In 2007, 24% of energy used, was generated from renewable
-Started agro-forestry programs sequestration of 31% of its CO2 emission
? Solid Waste
-Zero Solid waste discharge status. 99% solid waste recycled. -Helped to convert 80,000h of wasteland into high-yielding plantation
