My new job is with a company that belongs to the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index - I am looking at the brochure but not comprehending. What does this mean?

| 4. I get that impression too. The word is completely abused. |

Governments now all talk about sustainable development when they mean no such thing. It's just nonsense.

How about those companies and their investors who seek to do business in a responsible, environmentally proactive manner? Like maybe solar panel manufactures? Or environmentally friendly products, like Seventh Generation? I'm sure there's a list of them available, so then you can go ask them.
