7. Porter & Kramer’s
concept of Shared Value
• Shared value is policies and opera*ng prac*ces that
enhance the compe**veness of a company while
simultaneously advancing the economic and social
condi*ons in the communi*es in which it operates.
• Shared value is not social responsibility,
philanthropy, or even sustainability, but a new way
to achieve economic success. It is not on the margin
of what companies do but at their center.
• It is not about personal values, nor is it about
‘sharing’ the value already created by firms (aka
redistribu*on). Instead, it is about expanding the
total pool of economic and social value.

23. Business links to SDGs
These SDGs really fit who we are — they’re
accurate reflec*ons of our mission, our purpose in
the world and our core business, and we're going
to track our progress against these three or four or
five SDGs. Nobody's trying to bite off all 17 of
them, which is a good thing, but everybody's trying
to take a few.

29. THINGS YOU CAN DO AT HOME
• Let your hair and clothes dry naturally
instead of running a machine.
• Take short showers. Baths are for special
treats.
• Eat less meat, poultry, and fish. More
resources are used to provide meat than
plants
• Freeze produce and lemovers if you don’t
have the chance to eat them before they
go bad.
• Compost—compos*ng food scraps can
reduce climate impact while also
recycling nutrients.
• Recycling paper, plas*c, glass &
aluminum keeps landfills from growing.
• Buy minimally packaged goods.
• Avoid pre-hea*ng the oven. Unless you
need a precise baking temperature, start
hea*ng your food right when you turn on
the oven.
• Replace old appliances with energy
efficient models and light bulbs.
• Choose a beper diaper op*on. Swaddle
your baby in cloth diapers or a new,
environmentally responsible disposable
brand.
