Will Big Business Destroy Our Planet? is an eye-opening exploration into the influence of transnational corporations on global ecological challenges. In this compelling book, author Peter Dauvergne delves into the intricate relationship between massive corporations like Walmart, Coca-Cola, BP, and Toyota, and the escalating environmental crisis. With corporate social responsibility (CSR) often touted as the panacea for sustainability, Dauvergne argues that this faith in big business is misguided. As these mighty entities flourish, their impact on planetary health intensifies, often more detrimental than beneficial. This critical analysis urges readers to reconsider the role of corporate giants in the fight against climate change and emphasizes the necessity of regulating their power to safeguard our future. This book shines a spotlight on the urgency of transforming corporate practices while advocating for real solutions to ensure a sustainable planet for generations to come. Engage in this essential discourse surrounding environmental sustainability, corporate responsibility, and the urgent need for change.

Description:
Walmart. Coca-Cola. BP. Toyota. The world economy runs on the profits of transnational corporations. Politicians need their backing. Non-profit organizations rely on their philanthropy. People look to their brands for meaning. And their power continues to rise. Can these companies, as so many are now hoping, provide the solutions to end the mounting global environmental crisis? Absolutely, the CEOs of big business are telling us: the commitment to corporate social responsibility will ensure it happens voluntarily. Peter Dauvergne challenges this claim, arguing instead that corporations are still doing far more to destroy than protect our planet. Trusting big business to lead sustainability is, he cautions, unwise ” perhaps even catastrophic. Planetary sustainability will require reining in the power of big business, starting now.

Favorite Socks Ever
Size: Medium, Color: Black/Assorted, Size: Medium, Color: Black/Assorted
I absolutely love these socks, they compress in the middle which is my favorite thing about them! Keeps them from slipping off my feet and also adds support, love love love how they feel and how long they last! This is my second pack that I’ve purchased, I had the multi colored ones before and they’ve lasted me two years before finally starting to wear out and fade and get holes. Definitely going to be routinely buying these every year. Good to wear with my work out shoes...winter boots, Nike sandals, and my everyday adidas sneakers. These are so worth it!

Great ankle socks that stay put at a great price!!
Size: 6-9, Color: Assorted
These are great! I have been looking for a low profile ankle sock that is thinner but doesn’t ride down. (Picky, right?) I try to walk 5-7 miles on my days off. So it’s very important for me to not have to stop every couple of hundred yards, bend down, fix socks, then continue on my way while grumbling about NOT GREAT socks. These are not those socks. They really do stay put!!! And enough cushion to be comfortable also. So definitely a repeat!!
