Business is entering a new phase of long-term strategic thinking. Not
only must companies plan for their own economic wellbeing, but do so
in a way that fulfills social obligations and environmental
commitments. This is no longer a matter of choice, but increasingly
mandated by government regulations and global protocols
that set binding targets for business globally.

Starbucks Top 20 Rank: 2 Rank among: Food Services: 1
For years now has paid fair-market prices to Third World coffee farmers and helped develop ecologically sound growing practices.
Starbucks is green, it's humane, it sells a popular product and provides a comfy place to hang out.
Investors have no complaints: If you had put $1,000 into Starbucks stock when the company went public in 1992, you'd have been $52,718.10 to the good at year-end 2006, vs. just $3,515.30 for the S&P 500.

"I would only organize Live Earth if I could go on stage and
announce concrete environmental measures from the American
presidential candidates, Congress or major corporations.
"They haven't got those guarantees, so it's just an
enormous pop concert or the umpteenth time that, say,
Madonna or Coldplay get up on stage.

Reputation & Its Risks
''Identify, quantify, and manage the risks to your company’s reputation long before a problem or crisis strikes'‘
Executives know the importance of their companies' reputations. Firms with strong positive reputations attract better people. They are perceived as providing more value, which often allows them to charge a premium.'‘
