SUSTAINABILITY

What does it mean to be
SUSTAINABLE?

How is this manifesting now?

Eco-consciousness is now widespread, and many consumers and brands have pledged to live more sustainably. However, there’s resistance to measures such as low emission zone charges in cities. Numerous governments and brands have pushed back their climate targets, while others face accusations of greenwashing. And amid high costs, consumers may forgo products and lifestyles that carry a “green premium”.
