Abstract
Compass Group UK & Ireland has announced their support for the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) Vision 2050, which aims to ensure a ‘more sustainable and prosperous future’.

The WBCSD believes the world faces three critical challenges including climate change, nature loss and mounting inequality.

Vision 2050: Time to Transform sets a shared vision of a world in which more than nine billion people are able to live will, within planetary boundaries by 2050.

There are nine actionable routes for companies to take, including energy; transportation and mobility; living spaces; products and materials; financial products and services; connectivity; health and wellbeing; water and sanitation; and food.

Dominic Blakemore, chief executive of Compass Group PLC, said: “As we emerge from the pandemic, it is clear the world has changed. We are all responsible for taking actions that will address the critical challenges of the climate emergency, nature loss and mounting inequality we are currently facing.

“The nine pathways of Vision 2050 will galvanize business to take bold steps that will make a tangible difference to our planet, our people and our communities.”
