"Esty and Winson explore what every executive must know to manage the environmental challenges facing society and business. Based on the authors' years of experience and hundreds of interviews with corporate leaders around the world, Green to Gold shows how companies generate lasting value - cutting costs, reducing risk, increasing revenues, and creating strong brands - by building environmental thinking into their business strategies. They step away from the hippie-dippy, granola-phile, eco-millitant aspect of sustainability and portray a relevant, realistic, moral and profitable approach for companies on all levels to adopt."
"Profiles (more like sketches, really) of Fortune 500-type companies that are made money by going green, combined with key strategies & risk distilled by the two authors. I'm on my company's internal "green team" and found it very useful in generating ideas and helping us plot our course to sustainability. Only three stars because the writing is bad, though perhaps par for business-management books."
"I thought this economically-focused environmental book was a refreshing twist on the typical environmental books. The facts and figures presented are well-support and make for an interesting and informative read. I would recommend this to all the skeptics out there on the "green" movement."
