These trends are the focus of an article in Fast Company by Jody Mousseau, Vice President of Sustainability Development and Co-Chair of the DEIB Council at Aquent. Mousseau highlights research showing that, while many CEOs acknowledge sustainability as a priority, few are taking immediate action&mdash;which is a concern given the urgency of environmental issues. The article advocates for embedding sustainability practices at every level of a business, emphasizing that profitability and sustainability are not mutually exclusive. Mousseau cites Aquent as an example, noting its remote-first model and involvement in local community projects aimed at achieving a carbon-negative future. According to Mousseau, by investing in dedicated Sustainability Teams, companies can achieve long-term environmental goals, reduce costs, and boost their reputation.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How companies can thrive by prioritizing sustainability and aligning with the values of the next
