Sustainability is about ensuring a better quality of life for everyone, now and for generations to come. Thus it combines ecological, social, and economic concerns, and offers business opportunities for companies that can improve the lives of the world's people.
The Southeast Michigan Sustainable Business Forum is a resource for the development and implementation of sustainable business practices. It will promote practices through awareness of global trends, identification of best environmental practices, education and mentoring.
