About the Work
The importance of sustainability is increasingly reflected in the law: Companies must adapt their reporting standards, the Supply Chain Due Diligence Act requires extensive compliance in the supply chain, European civil law is to be aligned with sustainability, corporate sustainability initiatives should be exempt from antitrust law, and investments must meet sustainability standards. It is foreseeable that in the future, no law will pass through the legislative process without being reviewed for climate protection and other sustainability aspects.
The textbook presents the essential concepts of sustainability and their practical significance. It addresses the question: What does the law achieve in relation to the key issue of sustainability?
