Leaders
There are four new companies in this year’s top 10 sustainability leaders ranking by GlobeScan-SustainAbility – Microsoft, Ørsted, L’Oreal and Tata – while Unilever, Patagonia and IKEA once again top the list. Somewhat surprising and concerning in the wake of COVID-19 and BlackLivesMatter is that infectious disease only ranked 13 and diversity/discrimination 15 in the list of most urgent issues (climate change, biodiversity loss and water scarcity ranked top). The private sector is once again perceived as the third worst performing institution on sustainable development.
