This report from Deloitte Consulting explores how sustainability professionals at 48 companies in the U.S. address green and triple-bottom-line issues.

From the foreword to the report:

What is the state of sustainability in business today? The answer, as suggested by Deloitte's multi-industry survey of 48 executives who oversaw sustainability efforts at their companies, may depend on how one interprets the results. Our conversations with respondents left no doubt in our mind that these companies are interested and involved in sustainability, and most of them see a clear alignment between sustainability and their overall business strategy. On the other hand, our survey also suggests that many companies have a clear gap between their leaders' aspirations with regard to sustainability and the way that sustainability is enabled within their organizations.
