Companies and Environment, Accelerating Italy’s transition to sustainability

These are the demands that today, in Milan, during the conference of the Italian Alliance for Sustainable Development (Asvis), businesses and the world of finance have addressed the Government.

The lines of action necessary to accelerate the step towards the sustainable development goals of the 2030 Agenda have been gathered by the ten participating business associations that adhere to the Asvis in a joint document.

The text indicates the interventions necessary to create a suitable environment for sustainable development, to accelerate the decoupling between economic growth and environmental pressure, to face the social dimension of the ecological transition of the production system, to favor the development of the territories and their resilience and to promote an economic model oriented towards sustainable development.

“Sustainability is increasingly considered a strategic factor by companies as well as being an important element of value and reputation.

At the same time, the world of finance is paying more and more attention to innovative entrepreneurial realities, meeting the environmental, social and governance criteria (Esg).

Such criteria oblige a change of perspective and to invest not so much in the perspective of an immediate advantage, but in a medium-long term perspective “.
