Talking Sustainability Reporting with Kimberly-Clark
Originally posted on energysmart
A recent report from Harvard Business School found that more investors than ever before are incorporating sustainability data into their capital allocation decisions. And according to a 2014 PwC survey, 74% of CEOs believe measuring and reporting their total financial and non-financial environmental and social governance (ESG) impact contributes to long term success.
It’s clear that sustainability reporting is becoming an essential element of good business, yet it’s an area most companies are still mastering. That’s why I was especially grateful for the opportunity to sit down with Peggy Ward, the Sustainability Strategy Leader for Kimberly-Clark’s North American Consumer Tissue Division.
Kimberly-Clark is well known for its significant investment in developing sustainable products and for its outstanding commitment to corporate sustainability. During her time on the Enterprise Global Sustainability Team, prior to her current role, Peggy led the report-writing process for the company’s first eleven sustainability reports.
Kimberly-Clark recently released its 12th report, providing a comprehensive overview of sustainability efforts and focusing on case studies that highlight social and environmental progress throughout the company’s global operations.
