The Business of Sustainability: A Swedish Success Story

After winning the top spot for the second year in a row in Yale University’s Environmental Performance Index for Green Living, Sweden is now hosting the ICLEI World Congress, a network of more than 1,750 governments committed to sustainable development. The city of Malmö in Sweden is confident to they run on 100% renewable energy by 2030 and the city of Hammarby Sjöstad has, since the 90s, been completely rehabilitated from an unsafe industrial pollutant to a green residential district. The European residential developer White Peak has taken this success, and is now moving to meet the large demand for green buildings in China.
