Our
second ‘Sustainability Report' details various sustainability-related activities and achievements through the financial year 2008-09
. The corporate sustainability report also outlines our broad goals and targets for the next few years under various sustainability dimensions including energy, green-house gas intensity, water efficiency, waste management, diversity, education and community.
The
sustainability report is based on the theme of ‘Thriving in a Changing World’, it flows from the last report’s theme that underscored the spirit of mutualism as a cornerstone to ecological sustainability and social sustainability. The attempt in this sustainability report is to illustrate how such a spirit of mutualism can help current and future generations not merely survive but thrive in the face of some unprecedented challenges being faced by
humanity.
A
unique feature of this report that reflects the theme of ‘Thriving in a Changing World’ is a compilation of 28 best practices in the areas of ecological sustainability and social sustainability implemented by individuals and communities across the globe. These stories are about commitment and passion that began by charting the way to change mindsets first and then displayed how the seemingly improbable tasks were not only practical, but beneficial too.
