C-SUITE PERSPECTIVES

Is Sustainability Sustainable?

Steve Odland sits down with Bob Moritz to discuss what Moritz has called “the most formidable challenge we’ve faced since World War II”—sustainability.

In this episode, The Conference Board President and CEO Steve Odland sits down with Bob Moritz, the Global Chairman of PwC and a trustee of The Conference Board, to discuss sustainability. As companies adopt new sustainability frameworks and practices, executives are left to figure out the impact on shareholders, stakeholders, and their bottom line. In the current geopolitical and business context, is sustainability even sustainable? Tune in to find out:

  • What countries and businesses should be doing in the short run to deal with energy needs—and still maintain long-term, net-zero goals
  • How to think about diminishing carbon-based energy—balanced with urgent needs for fuel and food this winter
  • Why the introduction of globally-aligned sustainability standards will help investors and consumers compare “apples to apples”
