The planet is in crisis!
Plan B – Branson & Zeitz (Polman,Tata & Robinson)
“Business is integral to society, but it has
created most of the negative environmental
challenges of the century…
The B Team will catalyze a shift away from the
existing short –term, unsustainable mind set
towards the long term interest of people , the
planet and the wider economy’. Tackling these
three challenges is a starting point for a ‘Plan B’
to form.
Jochen Zeitz –Chairman PUMA June 2013
