  Businesses today need to balance the pursuit of profit with the  needs of growing numbers of people on a planet under pressure.  While sustainability programs, government action, and nonprofits  are all parts of the solution, a growing contingent of  forward-looking leaders recognizes the real challenge: a  fundamental shift in the nature of commerce. CEOs and other leaders  must focus the practice of business on social, environmental, and  economic benefitnot only because it will make the world a  better place, but because it will ensure lasting profitability and  success in the business climate of tomorrow.  The Breakthrough Challenge is an inspiring call-to-action  and guide for this transformation, based on the work of the B Team,  a major initiative uniting leaders in sustainability. As founding  members of the B Team, John Elkington and Jochen Zeitz map out  their agenda for change. The most important goal for businesses  must be redefining the bottom line to account for true long-term  costs throughout the supply chain. To achieve this, leaders must  rethink everything: what counts on balance sheets, how to incentive  performance, who does what in the C-suite, and even what inspires  us. The Breakthrough Challenge draws on over 100 exclusive  interviews to show this shift in action, sharing the pioneering  work of leaders such as Paul Polman, CEO of Unilever; Arianna  Huffington, founder and CEO of The Huffington Post; Peter  Brabeck-Letmathe, chairman of the Nestle Group; Linda Fisher,  pioneering Chief Sustainability Officer at DuPont; among many  others.    Change-as-usual strategies are not enough to move business from  breakdowns to breakthroughs. The Breakthrough Challenge  shows leaders how to achieve a true transformation and refocus the  definition of profitability on the lasting wellbeing of people and  planetfor the lasting success of their business.

  Beeronomics covers world history through the lens of beer, exploring the common role that beer taxation has played throughout and providing context for recognizable brands and consumer trends and tastes. 
  Beeronomics examines key developments that have moved the brewing industry forward. Its most ubiquitous ingredient, hops, was used by the Hanseatic League to establish the export dominance of Hamburg and Bremen in the sixteenth century. During the late nineteenth century, bottom-fermentation led to the spread of industrial lager beer. Industrial innovations in bottling, refrigeration, and TV advertising paved the way for the consolidation and market dominance of major macrobreweries like Anheuser Busch in America and Artois Brewery in Belgium during the twentieth century. We're now in the era of global integration—one multinational AB InBev, claims forty-six percent of all beer profits—but there's a counterrevolution afoot of small, independent craft breweries in America, Belgium and around the world. Beeronomics surveys these trends, giving context to why you see which brands and styles on shelves at your local supermarket or on tap at the nearby pub.

  '[A] tale of cloak and dagger intrigue, intense rivalries and political machinations you'd expect in a spy thriller.' Engineering & Technology
  
  Gross Domestic Product is failing. For decades it has rewarded environmental destruction and obscured inequality. Its formula can be-and has been-gamed to the detriment of developing countries.
  
  In this powerfully argued book, now updated with a new chapter, science writer Ehsan Masood shows how GDP fell from the path envisaged by its architects, and how its long-term misapplication has kept large parts of the world in poverty, while helping accelerate global warming and biodiversity loss.
  
  As the world rebuilds after the coronavirus pandemic and the accompanying global recession, our need for a more sustainable and inclusive measure of economic growth has never been greater. Change must come if we are to break the cycle. With clarity and passion, Masood shows how we can update GDP for a better future.
