摘要
Sustainability is not necessary, as proven by the significant number of chemical companies that have declined to adopt it. However, for more developed-world, public chemical companies, at least some nod to sustainability is probably required. Sustainability's return-on-investment' is difficult to quantify, which is not the same as saying there is no ROI. © Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2012.
