Description

Capitalism as if the World Matters by Jonathon Porritt is a thought-provoking exploration of how capitalism can be reformed to address environmental concerns. In this revised edition, Porritt presents fresh evidence and new actions to help mitigate the impact of human activity on the planet. The book examines the role of large corporations in shaping economic policy, with case studies on companies such as Wal-Mart and General Electric in the USA. It also considers China's growing economic influence and its potential global implications. This updated edition provides a comprehensive analysis of the need for a new type of capitalism that prioritises sustainability. A valuable resource for anyone looking to understand the relationship between business and the environment, this book is essential reading for business executives, environmental activists, community leaders, and politicians alike.
