GC&E Learning Objective:

This course emphasizes that businesses should try to be socially responsible, ecologically sustainable and reduce their carbon footprint. 3M Corp. is an example of one such successful company. It’s a fortune 100 company with sales of U$32.8 billion (2018) and produces a plethora of products (approx. 55,000). Scotch Tape and Post-It notes are only two of its more popular household brands/products. 

3M publishes annual sustainability reports available on their website (www.3m.com). Your objective for this project is to choose a multinational/global company and compare their latest Sustainability Report with at least 1 more from 3-7 years in the past.  Use these reports as well as other credible sources to write a thorough review summarizing how successful your company has been in implementing its sustainability programs.
