Sustainability Development Metrics: Indices, Approaches and Frameworks

Sustainability development metrics are aggregate measures that extend the concept of value beyond gross Domestic product (GDP). Commonly referred to as sustainability development indicators (SDI), these are measures of sustainability go beyond the generic concept.

Sustainability indicators, indices and reporting systems are of growing importance in both the public and private sectors. SDIs are seen as useful in a wide range of settings, by a wide range of actors this includes international and intergovernmental bodies; national governments and government departments; economic sectors; administrators of geographic or ecological regions; communities; nongovernmental organizations; and the private sector.

Here are some of the most prominent indices:

Human Development Index (HDI) of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP);

The Ecological footprint of Global Footprint Network

The Environmental Sustainability Index (ESI)

Environmental Performance Index (EPI) reported under the World Economic Forum (WEF)

Genuine Progress Index (GPI) calculated at the national or sub-national level.

The Global Reporting Initiative Index

The Energy, Emergy and Sustainability Index (SI)

Environmental Sustainability Index

The Lempert-Nguyen indicator

Here is a listing of different approaches:

The Natural Step approach

The Ecological footprint approach

The Anthropological-cultural approach

The Circles of Sustainability approach

World Business Council for Sustainable Development approach

The Life-cycle assessment approach

Sustainable enterprise approach

Sustainable livelihoods approach

Development sustainability" approaches

Here are some other sustainability metric frameworks:

The International Institute for Sustainable Development sample policy framework

The Sustainability dashboard

UN Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) types of sustainability

The Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) has identified considerations for technical cooperation that affect three types of sustainability:

Institutional sustainability.
Economic and financial sustainability.
Ecological sustainability.

Some ecologists have emphasized a fourth type of sustainability:

Energetic sustainability.

One ancillary measure that is gaining growing support is the green GDP that would factor the cost of pollution and natural capital depletion.

New Sustainability Metrics from KoAnn Skrzyniarz

Businesses are extending their metrics beyond the measurement of profit to other forms of value of creation. The new sustainability imperatives demands that we include new metrics. In response to both consumers and supply chain pressures businesses are under pressure to provide metrics that measure their sustainability efforts. While these metrics measure more than just profit, they are closely tied to financial performance and creating a competitive advantage.

Here are five new metrics from KoAnn Skrzyniarz. She is the originator of sustainable brands and Sustainable Life Media. She is one of the world's leading innovators in sustainability metrics. She explores ways of measuring new forms of environmental and social value.

Sustainable Life Media measures what they call a “wellbeing economy” -- or "WeFirst" capitalism, an economy whose measures of success would support and encourage rather than impede business innovation that generates broader societal benefit and the creation of shared value.

Such value can be understood as poverty elimination, collaboration, and environmental restoration and maintenance. Their efforts are premised on the goal of finding ways to grow revenues from sustainable activities that decouple growth from impact and deliver shared benefit to society in all sorts of creative ways.

As explored in a Forbes article by Sarah McKinney, Skrzyniarz champions better collaboration, and standardization through the use of key metrics as a way to help companies on their sustainability journeys.

Here are five new metrics:

1. Life Cycle Assessment is a technique used to assess environmental impacts associated with all the stages of a product’s life from-cradle-to-grave (i.e., from raw material extraction through materials processing, manufacture, distribution, use, repair and maintenance, and disposal or recycling).

2. ISO 14000 is a family of standards related to environmental management that exists to help organizations (a) minimize how their operations negatively affect the environment (i.e., cause adverse changes to air, water, or land), (b) comply with applicable laws, regulations, and other environmentally oriented requirements, and (c) continually improve in the above.

3. The Higg Index is an apparel and footwear industry self-assessment standard for assessing environmental and social sustainability throughout the supply chain. Launched in 2012, it was developed by the Sustainable Apparel Coalition.

4. B Corporation Certification is a private certification issued to for-profit companies by B Lab, a United States-based non-profit organization. To be granted and to preserve certification, companies must receive a minimum score on an online assessment for “social and environmental performance”, satisfy the requirement that the company integrate B Lab commitments to stakeholders into company governing documents, and pay an annual fee.

5. STARS is a transparent, self-reporting framework for colleges and universities to measure their sustainability performance, created by the organization AASHE.

Sustainability metrics are still young and we can expect a whole range of new measurements of value going forward. This will include measurements that gauge replenishing our natural resources, supporting the economic stability of local economies and encouraging the health and wellness of society.

Event - New Metrics 14 Conference

The fourth annual New Metrics ’14 conference will take place September 24-26 in Boston, Massachusetts. In 2011 Sustainable Brands launched its first “New Metrics” conference, initially partnering with Wharton’s IGEL program to host the conference. This year they are collaborating with MIT’s Sloan School of Business to bring together an audience of 300 brand leaders to be in dialogue with 60+ thought leaders from well-respected brands, NGOs and think tanks who will speak about how they’re working to create a path toward smarter, more accurate and more inclusive business metrics.

As explained by KoAnn Skrzyniarz, "Profit, revenue and margin growth will tell you plenty about the success of your business, but in today’s economy, they won’t provide insight into how business is positioned to operate against the broader trends that are influencing longer-term survival. Updating business models and metrics that enable social, economic and environmental resiliency in the 21st century will ensure the ability to thrive for the long term."

World Population Day and Curbing Co2 Emissions on a Per Capita Basis

Thursday, July 11th, is World Population Day. The issue of population growth is highly contentious as many want to point their fingers at the developing world where we are seeing the largest population increases. This is particularly true of Africa. However, rather than look solely at population increases we need to consider the significantly lower national per capita Co2 emissions profiles of developing nations as compared to developed countries.

Growing population is undeniably a serious environmental issue. The earth has a finite carrying capacity which we are already exceeding. The more people there are on this earth the greater the demands we make on the planet's limited resources.

There are currently 7 billion people on the planet and this is expected to grow to 9 billion people by 2050. The growing population will put even more strain on our finite resources. More people means more demand for water, food, and energy as well as associated increases in waste and emissions.

Even if we use conservative per capita Co2 emissions estimates of 3 tonnes per person per year, we see that 2 billion more people will generate at least 6 billion tonnes of additional annual Co2 emissions.

Much of the increase in emissions can be offset through the expanded use of renewables. Renewable energy generates a tiny fraction of the emissions associated with burning fossil fuels for energy. 

When we look at per capita emissions it is important to acknowledge the massive gulf that separates the developed and developing world. For example, China, is the world leader in total emissions (6018m metric tonnes of Co2) since it overtook the US (5903m metric tonnes of Co2) in 2007. But as assessed on a per capita basis the US generates more than four times China's Co2 emissions on an annual per capita basis (the average American is responsible for 19.8 tonnes per person, while the average Chinese citizen generates 4.6 tonnes).

The discrepancy between developed and developing countries is far worse in other places. The annual per capita Co2 emissions are 16.5 times higher in the US than in India which generates 1.2 tonnes per capita. Even though India's per capita emissions are on the rise, by 2040 the country is expected to have a Co2 emissions profile below 3 tonnes per person.

As the leading continent for population growth Africa is often unfairly singled out. To illustrate this point, the annual US per capita Co2 emission are 66 times higher than in the African country of Kenya which generates 0.3 tonnes per capita.

We are seeing very promising signs of sustainable development in Africa. The tremendous growth of renewable energy in Africa will enable the continent to keep its per capita emissions relatively low. For example, a report from the African Development Bank (AfDB) said that wind power is expected to increase by a factor of 10 over the next few years.

The prodigious growth of renewable energy in Africa and other developing nations is promising. It is clear that we will not be able to reduce global emissions if the developing world follows the same fossil fuel driven path that the developed world has taken.

Renewable energy can enable developing nations to leap frog past fossil fuels that same way they have established wireless communications without going through a stage of hard wired phones and the same way they are adopting electric vehicles without the heavy reliance on fossil fuel powered cars.

While we expect to see a reduction in annual per capita Co2 emissions in the developing world, they are still expected to be significantly higher than in developing nations. It should be obvious that if we are to curb global emission the developed world must significantly reduce their per capita emissions beyond current forecasts. Further, the developed world must assist the developing world with technology transfer and financial support to help them avoid our environmentally ruinous developmental path.

World population is a serious problem, but as we continue to seek an elusive deal on global emissions reductions, we must factor per capita emissions.

WWF's Earth Hour Playbook for Business

To help businesses with Earth Hour, WWF Canada has put together a Playbook for Business. The official playbook includes all sorts of activities and events to run not only during Earth Hour, but beyond the hour too. There are a number of things that businesses can do in addition to participating in Earth Hour, promoting the event in the workplace, and encourage employees to participate in Earth Hour at home.

Business activities run the gamut from awareness raising trivia quizes to work programs and ongoing actions. Host a departmental energy trivia challenge and test your employees with energy-related facts and prizes. To check out the energy trivia from Living Planet click here.

Companies are invited to join WWF’s Living Planet @ Work program. It includes access to free online tools and ideas for implementing sustainability initiatives, plus background documents on sustainability in the workplace. To see WWF's Living Planet @ Work Program click here.

For those businesses that want more action on climate change there are contest and other bright ideas to get people involved and reduce company footprints. To see other bright business ideas that go beyond Earth Hour click here.

One of the best things that a business can do is hire a company to perform an energy audit at your workplace. This will help you determine areas of inefficiency and find opportunities for improvement. With the help of WWF and Living Planet @ Work resources, work with your office manager, landlord and other stakeholders to set energy reduction targets. Communicate these targets to all stakeholders and announce when milestones have been reached.

Earth Hour: Tangible Action Beyond the Symbolism

Earth Hour is about more than symbolic gestures designed to consolidate support for action on climate change. While the importance of bringing people together for environmental betterment cannot be overstated, Earth Hour also produces tangible benefits. The event is a catalyst for thousands of environmentally oriented actions and initiatives around the globe. From Africa to the Americas, businesses and governments are getting involved alongside millions of people all around the world.

Last year in the US, nearly 35,000 Girl Scouts led a Save Energy Project for Earth Hour. They installed 132,141 energy efficient light bulbs in homes and community centers, eliminating 77,553,119 pounds of CO2 emissions, the equivalent to the CO2 sequestration from planting 7,495 acres of trees per year.

This year WWF-Russia secured 100,000 signatures for their Earth Hour petition to protective forests, which may be a catalyst to reinstate a ban on industrial logging in sensitive areas.

In Botswana, former President Mr Festus Mogae has made a four-year commitment to plant one million indigenous trees as part of his ‘I Will If You Will’ challenge. This campaign has already planted 100,000 trees in a severely degraded area in Southern Botswana called Goodhope.

In Argentina, Earth Hour organizers and WWF affiliate Fundación Vida Silvestre Argentina is mobilizing thousands of participants to help pass of a Senate bill to make Banco Burwood the biggest Marine Protected Area (MPA) in the country. If successful, the 3.4 million-hectare MPA will raise the level of protection of Argentina’s Exclusive Economic Zone from 1 percent to 4 percent.

In 2011, some of Singapore’s largest corporations took action for the planet by making an ongoing commitment to reduce their over reliance on air-conditioning. Initiated by WWF Singapore, the Earth Hour ’24 degrees or higher’ campaign called on businesses across the city-state to reduce their energy consumption by permanently setting the air-conditioning in their office buildings to 24 degrees Celsius. This action successfully involved some Singapore’s biggest corporations including Fullerton Heritage and real estate company, CapitaLand. CapitaLand also launched a “Wear Less Day” campaign the day before Earth Hour, encouraging staff and tenants to dress down for the temperature change to promote energy efficiency.

Whether reducing carbon through energy efficiency projects, planting trees or pressing political leaderships for environmental betterment, Earth Hour is making a difference.

WWF's Earth Hour 2013: Why You Should be Part of It!

Earth Hour is the largest grassroots environmental event in history. Hundreds of millions of people, businesses and governments around the world unite each year to turn off their lights for one hour to show their support for action on climate change. In 2012 a total of almost 7000 towns and cities in more than 152 countries got involved. In 2013 Earth Hour takes place on Saturday March 23, from 8:30 PM to 9:30 PM local time.

Earth Hour is a global movement that demands large-scale action. Shutting off your lights for Earth Hour is a highly visible symbolic act that is a catalyst for action on the issue of climate change. While turning off your lights for one hour will not put an end to climate change, hundreds of millions of people acting together across the globe can make a difference.

This event is an opportunity to press governments, businesses and citizens around the world to make important ecological progress including moving away from fossil fuels and embracing a future powered by clean renewable energy.

As studies indicate we are ebbing ever closer to irreversible civilization altering tipping points, we need to demand that all facets of society act in a responsible fashion that makes ecological and economic sense. The longer we wait to more it will cost and the less likely we are to succeed.

This is a pivotal year for our planet and all the species that inhabit it. We must act now to shape our future and stave off the worst impacts of climate change.

WWF’s Earth Hour is a unique annual phenomenon that focuses the world’s attention on planetary health, and how we need to protect it. Be part of the largest movement on the planet, be part of Earth Hour.

Global Survey on Sustainability

As reported in an April 30, 2012 Environmental Leader article, 72 percent of US companies say sustainability influences their purchasing decisions and is an important factor when selecting a service provider. Outside of the US, 91 percent of the companies polled said sustainability was part of their purchasing decisions. These numbers are from a survey called 2012 Rackspace Green Survey from cloud computing firm Rackspace Hosting.

Melissa Gray, director of sustainability at Rackspace said the survey results show the companies see sustainability as increasingly necessary. Companies appear to understand that selecting solid partners as part of their supply chain translates into lower risk and more efficiency.
The survey also found:
  • 26 percent of respondents said cost considerations outweighed environmental factors when purchasing products and services;
  • 54 percent of companies said when two purchasing choices are equal (including cost), the greener product or service is better;
  • 20 percent said when two purchasing choices are not equal, greener is better;
  • 17 percent of companies said sustainability is a standard part of their request for information, proposal or quote system;
  • 59 percent of companies said they consider sustainability periodically for specific types of purchases.

Global Clean Energy Investment Sets Record

Global clean energy finance and investment grew to a record $263 billion in 2011. According to new research released by The Pew Charitable Trusts, this represents a 6.5 percent increase over 2010. The US reclaimed the top spot from China, which has led the global clean energy race since 2009. Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, India were all in the top ten for clean energy investment in 2011.

“Clean energy investment, excluding research and development, has grown by 600 percent since 2004, on the basis of effective national policies that create market certainty,” said Phyllis Cuttino, director of Pew’s Clean Energy Program. “This increase was due in part to the number of countries that have implemented effective national policies to support the clean energy market. In the United States, which attracted $48 billion last year, investors took advantage of the country’s stimulus programs before they expired at the end of 2011, as well as the production tax credit for electricity from renewable energy, which is to end this December.”

The price of solar fell by half in 2011 and the price has fallen by 75 percent compared to three years ago. Driven by these significant price declines, solar increased by 44 percent in 2011, attracting $128 billion and accounting for more than half of all clean energy investment among members of the G-20. Wind prices also were lower in 2011. In 2011 clean energy generating capacity grew by a record 83.5 gigawatts (GW). Almost 30 GW of new solar and 43 GW of wind power were deployed.

China was second with $45.5 billion in clean energy investment. However China led the world in wind power with 20 GW of installed capacity. China is also the world leader in terms of renewable energy attractiveness.

Germany came in third with $30.6 billion of clean energy investment including 7.4 GW of solar power. Italy is in fourth place with $28 billion in clean energy financing last year, an increase of 38.4 percent from 2010. The country deployed a record of nearly 8 GW of solar generating capacity. Over the last five years Italy has led the world when investment levels are factored relative to the size of the country's economy.

According to statistics from the Department of Energy and Climate Change the renewable energy sector contributed to a record breaking 9.6 percent of the electricity supplied by the UK grid in 2011. This is an encouraging 50 percent increase on the figures from 2010.

India came in sixth with $10.2 billion in clean energy investment that is up 54 percent. India has the ambitious goal of installing 20 GW of power by 2020. In 2011 solar received $4.2 billion in investments while wind received $4.6 billion.
