Admittedly it’s known as “the last mile” but I’m Canadian so there you go. I like this phrase because it holds so much promise – You’re almost there - finally we can realize the full potential – or at last… it’s over. What happens when we apply this phrase to sustainability? I think it would fit into the final chapter of companies finding the opportunities and resolving the risks across the silos’ of organization that touch all that is social, environmental and ecological. So what does that look like? For the most part this is the reorganization and consolidation of data sitting out there in minds, spreadsheets, data bases and email. All of which has not been safely assembled for intelligent discovery because running sustainability data on an excel spread sheet is messy and not – well – sustainable. Sustainability on Excel puts an organization closer to green washing than any audit team should be happy with. So what is the last kilometer regarding sustainability? The answer is adoption of professional reporting and analytics solutions that are rated by prominent ranking agencies. Check out the Enterprise Carbon Accounting report from Groom Energy. It rates the top providers any discerning organization should pick from to make it across the finish line and win the prize. That’s the last kilometer.
