Sustainability and Its Role in Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions

Bogor, Indonesia - According to the report of the World Commission on Environment and Development chaired by Gro Harlem Brundtland entitled “Our Common Future” (United Nation, 1987). It highlighted that humanity can carry out sustainable development (sustainability). This sustainable development is necessary, to ensure the current generation could meet the needs of future generations. The concept of sustainable development is limited by the current technologies, and social organizations are dependent on natural resources and the ability of the ecosystem to mitigate the effects of human activities.

But technologies and social organizations can be scaled up to open opportunities for a new era of economic growth. The World Commission on Environment and Development (WCED), stated that widespread of poverty is inevitable. Sustainable development requires meeting the basic needs of everyone and maximizing every opportunity towards building a better life. A world where poverty is endemic will always be vulnerable against ecological disasters.

Sustainability has become the purpose of businesses, nonprofit organizations and government organizations in the last decade, but measuring how far an organization can apply sustainability to reach a rapid sustainable growth, is thought to require a considerable amount of effort.

John Elkington attempted to measure events during mid-1994s by incorporating a new framework to measure performance in American corporates. (Slaper 2011)

Long before Elkington introduces the concept of sustainability as a ““triple bottom line” (TBL) or also known as 3P’s (People, Planet dan Profit), environmentalists were grappling with the size and framework for sustainability.

The academic disciplines have conducted studies and pilot practices of sustainability have more than doubled since the last 30 years. Academics and non-academicians who have

conducted studies and practices sustainability, agreed with the definition by Andrew Savitz (2006) for the Triple Bottom Line (TBL). TBL captures the essence of sustainability by measuring the effects from organization activities in the world, includes its profitability and shareholder value, as well as its social, human, and environmental capital. The trick isn’t in defining TBL. The trick is to measure it.

This accounting, is called the triple bottom line (TBL), which goes beyond traditional measures of profit, return on investment, and shareholder value to include environmental and social dimension. Focused on comprehensive investment— that is, performance and the interconnected dimension of profit, people and planet which are interconnected, the reporting of triple bottom line could become an important tool in supporting sustainability purpose.

Responding to this statement, at the end of 1990s, the term 3P’s (People, Planet and Profit) or “triple bottom line (TBL)” was introduced by J. Elkington which emphasized on Brundtland’s report. Based on studies’ result and survey conducted by worldwide expert, there is a relationship between 3P’s and corporate social responsibility (CSR) as well as Sustainable Development.
