Abstract

Corporations represent one of the greatest threats to modern society. Their impacts on the natural systems and communities have brought about irreparable harm, and finding ways to address this is of paramount importance. Corporate Social Responsibility programs have been largely ineffective at producing institutional change, largely because the underlying framework for success has been neglected. By working to increase environmental education among students as well as consumers, and implementing more uniform national and international policies governing corporate activity, businesses can enter into a new era of sustainability.
