Sometimes the introductions to catch-all articles about 'green business' or 'sustainability' deliver unfathomable gems. Here's a good one:
"The challenges to achieving true global sustainability seem more insurmountable as the years roll on."
The actual article is not bad--it makes the case that reporting, in its current shape and form, is pretty much irrelevant and has questionable impact on the sustainability movement. But the author's solution--that most of the answers can be solved if all companies get real-time reporting dashboards--seems like a disingenuously simple remedy to the issue as he frames it:
"The vision of making disclosure on economic, environmental, and social performance as commonplace as financial reporting -- and as relevant to organizational success."
