The CPA Insider Newsletter from the Journal of Accountancy just published a new post called: CFOs and sustainability—a growing relationship, How CFOs can engage with their organizations’ sustainability goals by Shilpa Pai Mizar.
The post cites three key reasons for CFO's to engage on sustainability issues:
- Sustainability risk is business risk
- Sustainable practices have been shown to save organizations money and create long-term business value
- Companies are seeing increased interest from investors in sustainability issues.
