The Sustainability Yearbook 2008 is the world's most comprehensive annual publication on sustainability trends and corporate sustainability performances from 57 industry sectors. SAM and PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) have teamed up to present insights from SAM Research's yearly sustainability assessment of over 1000 global companies. In addition an article from PwC reveals how an increasing number of companies perceive sustainable business practices as a significant business opportunity. The Sustainability Yearbook illustrates furthermore:

  • An overview of SAM Research Corporate Sustainability Methodology, relevant sustainability trends and resulting corporate challenges;
  • Statistics on sectors and issues based on the SAM Corporate Sustainability Assessment 2007; and
  • For the first time, the companies in the Yearbook that focus the most on sustainability qualified for the SAM Gold, Silver and Bronze Class distinctions, according to their accomplishments

The Sustainability Yearbook 2008 can be downloaded for free.
