Perspectives on Social and Business Sustainability

Reflections and Thoughts

By: Tay Kay Luan

Addressing the sustainability agenda is never easy. The early promises of the corporate social-responsibility concept and application have raised better awareness and understanding of its concept and application. Understandably, the experience and outcome are never the same across the business and social community. To begin with, issues related to corporate social responsibility (CSR) come in hundreds of shades. The understanding of the definition alone depends on whose perspective and in what context. At the very least, there is now a greater acceptance of the concept, but increasingly, corporate leaders need no further persuasion that doing good is more than giving a donation. The myriad of CSR issues and concerns is, therefore, worth a relook but from the conceptual perspectives to understanding of the challenges, impacts, and trends. Perspectives on Social and Business Sustainability first describes the important elements of different aspects of how CSR is being understood, applied, and reported. The book examines how international trends and developments including market and technology disruptions will continue to shape the sustainability landscape. The book is relevant for those wanting to take a quick perspective of the evolving concept of sustainability and is also useful for those who only want to focus on specified area within the context of social and business sustainability.

Applying Sustainability

Principles and Practices

By: Tay Kay Luan

Promoting and applying the broad concept and principles of sustainability in the context of the economics, environment and society varies among diverse stakeholders. The sustainable development movement has made the application of sustainability principles more consistent and better understood. Applying Sustainability brings together the principles and practices of sustainable development in the context of global challenges that include climate change, food security, and widening digital divide. The unintended consequences of growth and prosperity have brought unwanted deep ecology damage, rising social inequality, unending amount of waste from the effects of consumerism to name a few host of social challenges. The framework of United Nations Sustainable Development Goals has given global leaders the roadmap to address the sustainability issues and the dangers ahead, as well as clarity on the standards and responsibility that would be demanded of all stakeholders. But applying sustainability requires the urgency to conserve resources and do the right thing for a more sustainable lifestyle. The book reminds the world that to overcome the environmental and social challenges, much more needs to be done. Change brings a departure from the norm. But nothing less than what sustainability stands for matters.

Sustainability Is the Future

By: Tay Kay Luan

The overwhelming evidence produced by scientific and economic experts shows clearly that sustainability dangers of climate change can be far worse than the disruptions caused by Covid-19 pandemic. The adverse consequences of climate change pose a real threat to humanity. Adverse impacts to the environment threaten food security and its interdependency which the entire social system is relying on. The UN Sustainable Development Goals have given global communities and their leaders a vision of the future, clarity of purpose, a responsibility for all to embrace and a commitment for all to participate. Within this context, ‘Sustainability is the future’ reminds readers of the opportunities and the alternatives towards mitigating the economic and social risks posed by the dangers of mounting sustainability concerns. A longer-term solution involves a massive shift in the attitudes and actions. There are available technologies and digital means, but accessibility and affordability remain a challenge. At no time in the history of humanity has there been a more urgent need for political and community leaders to take appropriate actions towards achieving the sustainable development goals. There is enough evidence that governments partnering a broad range of stakeholders can meet this expectation. The book debates what needs to be done, as well as reminding readers that failure to do so will leave the fragile earth in a more fractured state and make it harder to repair. The clock is already ticking
