The author discusses his proprietary framework, The Corporate Sustainability Scorecard TM C-suite rating system, that has been developed over 20 years and used by more than 50 companies to rate themselves on sustainability.

Social responsibility and environmental stewardship form important parts of his discourse in this important contribution to the debate on sustainability that will benefit business executives and those interested in sustainability and business.
