Businesses join forces to help deliver a sustainable future »

This month business leaders around the UK came together through Business in the Community's Mayday Network to discuss how their businesses, supply chains and products can help deliver a sustainable future.

 

At today's rates of consumption, if all 7 billion people currently on the planet were to have UK lifestyles, we would need 3 planet earths. Today only about 3 billion of us enjoy a modern poverty free lifestyle - and in 2050 there will be 9 billion of us.
