"The interview and I the concerns raised in the comments are excellent examples of why CSR needs to move beyond a level of compliance with companies doing less harm to an era of responsibility with actions that are creating measurable good."

Here is what some members say about it:
- First it is important to understand the objectives of your CSR efforts. Once objectives have been established you should then determine what your primary KPIs are for measuring key milestones.

New CSR News Compiler up and running!
We have been working on this for a long time... fine-tuning sources, keywords, algorithms, you name it. After working for 3 months, late nights and drinking a lot of coffee, it is up and running.
Sources we included are a mixture of major news agencies such as BBC, Reuters... but then we spiced it up with niche blogs and expert reports.
Please feel free to post any feedback below. Any other sources we should include?

Alternative Energy - Anticipating China’s 4th Industrial Revolution – Cleantech
Interesting report about the solar / clean-tech supply chain in Japan and China. With the data points Jesse Pichel gathered from their tour in Japan and China, they conclude that 1) 2012 global solar demand will be flat: pronounced declines in Europe (especially Italy) will be somewhat mitigated by strong growth in China, Japan, and the USA with 2H12>1H; 2) global solar growth will resume in 2013 on easier comps in Europe, significant growth in Japan, China, and the USA, and initial…

Investors Against Genocide is running a campaign to make sure mutual funds don't make investments that contribute to genocide. We have submitted resolutions to more than 50 mutual funds.
We need supporters to let shareholders know to vote their proxies, particularly those with Fidelity funds since there are votes on the issue scheduled in March, April, and May.
Go to http://investorsagainstgenocide.org/shareholderresolutions for more information.

- To Development Crossing
Well, I know that this site's just underwent to modifications but I would like to suggest a feature that could be added to the site: currrently when the user is viewing the members page, it shows (mark) those that are online at the moment displaying "on line" in green letters under his/her photo. My suggestion is: to allow the members to interact with each other much like an MSN Messenger - by simply clicking on the photo, that in turn would open a window prompting them to chat. I don't know if someone else have already suggested that or if it is already 'in the works' by Development Crossing but it would be nice to have something like that.
Best regards

Lauren Miller said… - I go to school in a city that is very environmentally friendly, and aware of its impact so environmental studies just seemed to fit with ease here. Currently, my school only has a minor in it, but i'm sure that will change soon!
My sustainable class incorporates the business and social side of sustainability. We read case studies on successful business techniques using microlending, and focusing on the "bottom of the pyramid." Recently, the co-founder of Fair Indigo (a great fair trade clothing company) came in to speak to us, and the head of the department for Sustainability in SC Johnson. It is the first time this class has been offered at my school, and it is a great opportunity to be part of it!

- Our www.InvestorsAgainstGenocide.org site is usually very current with what we're doing / accomplishing. Today was a big day since we had our first vote on our shareholder proposal at Fidelity. Check out the AP story: http://www.forbes.com/feeds/ap/2008/03/19/ap4795003.html
