The essential guide “Sustainability Compact” begins with various definitions of sustainability, explores different approaches to evaluating the sustainability of companies and their products, presents common sustainability indicators, and concludes with the current state of sustainability reporting. On the path toward comparability of corporate sustainability performance, monetary and CO2-based evaluation methods are introduced, along with measurable sustainability based on energy consumption and entropy analysis.
