Discussion
5. "The future is not some place we are
going to but one we are creating. The
paths are not to be found, but made, and
the activity of making them changes both
the maker and the destination."
John Schaar, Professor Emeritus, UC Santa Cruz
Sustainability Context and Current Reality
10. Global Consumption is not Sustainable
www.footprintnetwork.org/en/index.php/GFN/page/world_footprint/
11. No throwing away. Where do wasted materials go?
• 200 billion pounds of plastic consumed each
year.
• 10% end up in the Oceans.
• Plastics break down, but remaining a polymer.
• Plastics absorb other hazardous chemicals and
both enter into our food chain.
15. Precautionary Principle
“The precautionary
principle or precautionary
approach states that if an
action or policy has a
suspected risk of causing
harm to the public or to the
environment, in the
absence of scientific
consensus that the action or
policy is harmful,
the burden of proof that it
is not harmful falls on
those taking an action.”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precautionary_principle
21. Financial Quantification for Sustainable Planning
• Risks (Liabilities) and Opportunities (Benefits) to business
• Tangible
• Direct and indirect costs or revenues
• Low probability but high risk/returns
• Intangible (Brand risk?, Long term risks? Equity risks?)
• Externalities (Social cost shifting?, Supply chain risks?,
Societal benefits?)
• Sustainability cost approaches and boundaries
• Direct costs and benefits
• Activity-Based Costing (ABC)
• Full Cost Analysis (FCA)
• Life Cycle Costs (LCC)
• Value Chain and Global Economy Implications

41. 7 Climate Change Risks
1. Reputation with Customers: Backlash from consumers if do not
react / help; lost revenue if rivals develop climate-friendly products
and technologies first
2. Regulatory “Price on Carbon”: Carbon caps or taxes, as
recommended by economists; supply chain accountability
3. Threat to Market Value: Viewed as “material risk” by investors
and banks; difficult to access capital
4. Loss of Top Talent: Best people walk way
5. Physical Damage: To company’s assets from severe
weather events – or to suppliers’, or to customers’
6. Access to markets: Complex, different regulations
7. Litigation: Lawsuits for GHG pollution
Jonathan Lash and Fred Wellington, “Competitive Advantage on a Warming Planet,” HBR, March 2007.
42. Climate Change Risks
“Adapting for a Green Economy,” UN Global Compact, UN Environmental Programme, Oxfam,
and World Resources Institute, 2010.
43. Revenue at risk
Risk from poor reputation on energy and carbon
management
Risk from poor reputation on water management
Risk from poor reputation on materials and waste
management
Risk from poor reputations of suppliers or customers
Risk from poor reputation on eco-system damages
Risk from less competitive prices
Risk from sudden disruptions in the value chain

53. Reporting and Disclosure Trends
“Let’s Talk: Sustainability,” EY, January 2014.
1. Disclose any conflict minerals in supply chain
Must meet Dodd-Frank Act Section 1502’s SEC disclosure filing requirements by
June 2014; report on source of origin for tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (3TG)
in supply chain; are in almost all electronics.
2. Report on material non-financials / intangibles
Follow GRI G4, IIRC, SASB, and INCR SSE
guidelines
3. Report on ESG in supply chains
Especially social compliance in retail supply chains
4. ESG disclosures for listing on stock exchanges
Led by INCR SSE with WFE and SASB with U.S. SEC; NASDAQ QMX and
NYSE are collaborating on these efforts; voluntary, so far
54. SASB
Developing industry-specific standards to measure and disclose
ESG performance on the top 10 material sustainability issues for
89 industries in 10 sectors. for mandatory Form 10-K SEC filings

56. Resilience in a Hotter World
• The Challenge
– Global climate change and increasing constraints on resources will require
companies to fundamentally rethink their strategies, operations, and business
philosophy in order to create new value and thrive.
• The Strategy
– Firms must embrace a new vision by fighting short-termism, basing goals on
science, and pursuing radical innovation; they must place a value on natural
capital (such as clean air and water) and redefine how they measure ROI; and
they must engage in new forms of collaboration with governments, NGOs,
peers and competitors, and customers.
• The Results
– These strategies will create more resilient companies that can manage,
and profit from, extreme volatility. They will also help companies address
society’s largest challenges and create a more prosperous world for all.

61. Externality Values Include Ecosystem Services
Robert Costanza et al., “Changes in the global value of ecosystem services,” Global Environmental Change 26, May 2014.
Estimated global value of 17 ecosystem services,
1997 : $33T, annually, or $46T in 2007 $USD
(1997global GDP was $46T/yr in 2007 $USD)
2011: $125T
(2011 global GDP was $75T/yr in 2007 $USD)
Between 1997 and 2011, there was
between $4.3T and $20.2T loss of
ecosystem services per year.

65. Greener Finance at Corporate
& Economy Levels
• Corporation and Communities have no “slack”
– Positive cash flow and profits needed before pivoting
• Governments have no “will”
– Unrealistic handling of debt; ambiguous missions; burden
shifting to future generations
• Valuing nature and ecosystem services is still a fatal flaw
“blind spot” in the economy
– Unintended consequences of neglecting short- and long-
term impact of natural systems and human consciousness
