ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the key concepts discussed in the preceding chapters of this book. The book focuses on sustainability from five different angles: consumer sustainability, firm sustainability, societal sustainability, laws and regulations defining sustainability and finally sustainability from a scholarly stance. It discusses the fact that consumers' and societies' reactions to unfavorable corporate practices made it vital for businesses to pursue sustainability. The book presents corporate sustainability practices in different countries and regions of the world. It highlights the importance of supporting, reporting, and auditing to manage sustainability practices. Injustice or inappropriate corporate actions, such as practices neglecting sustainability, may prompt negative attention from consumers and movements against these irresponsible firms. The principal goal of sustainable management is to engage in superior business practices by combining all resources that are needed more effectively, efficiently and ethically.
