Why is environmental sustainability so important?

The top five global long-term business risks relate to environmental issues (World Economic Forum Global Risks Report, 2025).

Today, issues such as climate change, nature and biodiversity, pollution and sustainable development can present material financial risks and are key topics that funders, employees, our communities and consumers focus on and ask questions about. If you are part of others’ supply chains then there’s a good chance you will be under scrutiny in the not too distant future.

Environmental sustainability matters can present risks and opportunities to company reputation, brand, employee attraction and retention and long term business success. We are, after all, dependent on our environment and it’s wellbeing is central to a thriving and sustainable economy.
