Abstract

Dieses Buch gibt einen Einblick, wie in der wirtschaftlichen Praxis dem Klimawandel entgegengewirkt und erfolgreich mit den direkten und indirekten Folgen umgegangen werden kann. Analysiert werden aus betriebswirtschaftlicher Sicht die klimawandel-induzierten Risiken und deren bestmögliche Steuerung. Weiter wird herausgearbeitet, welche Unternehmenspotenziale und Chancen durch eine nachhaltige und klimaschonende Wirtschaftstransformation aufgrund neuer Geschäftsfelder, Produkte und Technologien entstehen können. Damit wird aufgezeigt, wie aus einem der größten Probleme unserer Zeit auch wirtschaftliche Erfolgsmodelle entstehen können. Vorgestellt werden zudem aktuelle Erkenntnisse der Wissenschaft, Pläne der Politik sowie Forderungen von Interessensvertretungen und NGOs. Konkrete Best Practice-Beispiele unterschiedlichster Branchen – etwa Banken und Versicherungen, Land- und Forstwirtschaft, Tourismus, Industrie oder Logistik – werden präsentiert und die Auswirkungen beleuchtet. Ebenso wird die Übereinstimmung der jeweiligen Ziele und Maßnahmen mit internationalen Initiativen und Entwicklungen – wie der Agenda 2030 mit den Sustainable Development Goals, dem Pariser Klimaabkommen sowie dem EU Aktionsplan zur Finanzierung nachhaltigen Wachstums – aufgezeigt. Klar erkennbar ist, dass in Bezug auf den Klimawandel – der zunehmend als globale Klimakrise eingestuft wird – unmittelbarer Handlungsbedarf besteht und es in der gesellschaftlichen Verantwortung der Unternehmen liegt, strategisch und pro-aktiv zu handeln. Der Inhalt - Aktuelle Erkenntnisse der Wissenschaft - Maßnahmen und Pläne der Politik - Forderungen von Interessensvertretungen und NGOs - Best Practice Beispiele unterschiedlichster Branchen - Sichtweisen von Nachhaltigkeitsrating-Agenturen und Wirtschaftsprüfung Die Herausgeber Mag. Andrea Sihn-Weber, CSE ist renommierte, international tätige Nachhaltigkeits-, CSR- und Kommunikationsexpertin in Wien mit langjähriger Erfahrung im Bankensektor. Dr. Franz Fischler, ehemaliger EU-Agrarkommissar, ist – neben vielen weiteren Funktionen – Präsident des Europäischen Forum Alpbach. Die Reihe „In der CSR-Managementreihe werden bestehende Ansätze durch neue Ideen und Konzepte ergänzt, um so dem Paradigma eines nachhaltigen Managements gerecht zu werden. Damit soll ein neuer Standard in der unternehmerischen Praxis sowie Managementliteratur gesetzt werden.” (René Schmidpeter).

Abstract

Sustainable Entrepreneurship stands for a business driven concept of sustainability which focusses on increasing both social as well as business value - so called Shared Value. This book shows why and how this unique concept has the potential to become the most recognised strategic management approach in our times. It aims to point out the opportunities that arise from putting sustainable entrepreneurship into practice. At the same time, this book is a wake-up call for all those companies and decision makers who underestimated Sustainable Entrepreneurship before or who are simply not aware of its greater dimension. Well structured chapters from different academic and business perspectives clearly outline how Sustainable Entrepreneurship contributes to solving the world's most challenging problems, such as Climate Change, Finance Crisis and Political Uncertainty,  as well as to ensuring business success. The book provides a framework of orientation where the journey might go: What can a successful concept of SE look like? What are the key drivers for its realisation? What is the role of business in shaping the future of our society? The book also presents best practices and provides unique learnings as well as business insights from the international Sustainable Entrepreneurship Award (www.se-award.org). The Sustainable Entrepreneurship Award (short SEA) is an award for companies today who are thinking about tomorrow by making sustainable business practices an integral part of their corporate culture. Companies that receive the SEA are being recognised for the vision they have shown in combining economic and sustainable responsibility.

Abstract

In 2015, the international community decided to eradicate hunger and assure food security by 2030 as part of the UN Sustainable Development Agenda. Unfortunately, this optimism was not sustained with actions and has been fading ever since. This policy brief looks at the current situation of food (in)security, analyses the main reasons for the fading optimism, and explores possible means to regain it. This special edition brief is an advocacy plea by former EU Commissioner Fischler in view of important conferences on food security in 2021.
