At
this moment in time we face a unique opportunity to transform our
economic system from one of short-term gains and too-high risks to one
where long-term prosperity and corporate social responsibility go
hand-in-hand.
As
countries continue to negotiate a global deal on climate following the
Copenhagen Accord, the U.S. continues to work toward adopting
comprehensive national climate and energy policies. While we wait for these
milestones to bring us closer to a cleaner, greener, more sustainable
way of doing business, corporations and investors alike are exploring
solutions and seizing opportunities that will help us prosper
in a low-carbon economy.
For
20 years, Ceres has brought together companies, investors,
environmentalists and other stakeholders to integrate sustainable
solutions into business strategy and build long-term shareholder value.
At the Ceres Conference 2010: Roadmap for a Sustainable
Future, we will again bring these partners together to
examine and define the key issues and solutions for achieving a
sustainable future.
Join
us in Boston as we bring together corporate directors,
CEOs, environmental and labor leaders, investors, and corporate
governance experts to build a cleaner, more sustainable future.
