Download or read book Will Big Business Destroy Our Planet written by Peter Dauvergne and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walmart. Coca-Cola. BP. Toyota. The world economy runs on the profits of transnational corporations. Politicians need their backing. Non-profit organizations rely on their philanthropy. People look to their brands for meaning. And their power continues to rise. Can these companies, as so many are now hoping, provide the solutions to end the mounting global environmental crisis? Absolutely, the CEOs of big business are telling us: the commitment to corporate social responsibility will ensure it happens voluntarily. Peter Dauvergne challenges this claim, arguing instead that corporations are still doing far more to destroy than protect our planet. Trusting big business to lead sustainability is, he cautions, unwise — perhaps even catastrophic. Planetary sustainability will require reining in the power of big business, starting now.

After a computer explosion at the library, Josiah takes cover in a room full of Bibles. He reads God's Word for the first time, and (with the help of mysterious radioactive fumes) is transformed into a superhero--Captain Absolutely.

Kids are bombarded with confusing messages every day at school, on social media, and from their friends. Captain Absolutely doesn't run from hard conversations but tackles them with wisdom rooted in Scripture to help readers grow in spiritual maturity.
