ABSTRACT:
As companies move from a reactive to a proactive stance in managing carbon, they can convert a cost issue into a growth opportunity. Taking into account traditional concerns about quality, service and cost, a comprehensive carbon-management strategy can help organizations develop more sustainable growth opportunities, maintain competitive differentiation, and strengthen their brand image. In an age of heightened corporate scrutiny and social responsibility, the companies that turn the tables on the carbon challenge could well be the leaders in the 21st century global economy.
