Business Firm and Organization Sustainability
| A business firm has many components: shareholders, employees, trading partners, suppliers, insurers, regulators, customers, investors, and philanthropic activities. Any or all of these players can work toward sustainability and push the other players to act toward sustainability. Trading partners can demand "green products"; shareholders can demand social justice; and the philanthropic division can focus its attention on sustainability-oriented groups. It is through these subgroups of a business firm and government, consumer, or NGO pressure that businesses can change their way of operating.
