It presents data from interviews with 41 political and business leaders in these five countries to examine the political and professional effects on sustainability. In addition to the three pillars of sustainability, the author briefly examines the role of religion in sustainability as a potential fourth pillar. The UN SDGs represent minimum targets for the global environmental, economic, and social pillars that underpin a sustainable future for our planet. The data presented in this book combined with the themes uncovered with the SDGs adds to our understanding of how we can potentially influence and achieve these targets and create a sustainable future for the world. 0aIndustrial managementxEnvironmental aspects.968586 0aEconomic development.958075 0aSustainability.957661 0aInternational business enterprises.95815614aCorporate Environmental Management.96858724aDevelopment Studies.96785124aSustainability.95766124aInternational Business.9591092 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303170617208iPrinted edition:z978303170619608iPrinted edition:z9783031706202 0aSustainable Development Goals Series,x2523-309296725940uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-70618-9 aZDB-2-BUM aZDB-2-SXBM c64187d64187
