Global poverty and environmental degradation are two of the greatest challenges facing our society. Fernando Casado Caneque and Stuart Hart remind us that one can't be solved without addressing the other. Business can and must play a greater role in the transformation to inclusive green growth, and this book presents a new and important toolkit for leaders, innovators, and entrepreneurs seeking to take this leap. Ted London, Ross School of Business & William Davidson Institute, University of Michigan Hart and Casado outline an exciting paradigm for future innovation by explicitly connecting the challenges of environmental sustainability and social justice. Better yet, they offer frameworks and global cases studies to inspire firms of all sizes to play their part. Deepa Prahalad, design strategist, co-author Predictable Magic, Thinkers50 India
