Then present your case to them directly. I showed the figures for paper us…

Greetings from India
You are right saying many leaders dont care or talk about CSR. Even big companies here in our city that caters one of world's largest ITs, BPOs do little of CSR. Young proessionals are keen in promoting CSR I feel.
Good luck and progress in your work and life
