The guiding mandate for Prince Charles’ Sustainable Markets Initiative (SMI), the Terra Carta seeks to establish a roadmap “towards an inspiring, inclusive, equitable, prosperous and sustainable future for the sake of present and future generations”.
The Terra Carta asks signatories to partake in almost 100 actions to become more sustainable by 2030 and is backed by several international institutions, such as HSBC and the Bank of America.
– Supporting international agreements on climate
– Boodiversity and desertification
– Backing efforts to protect half of the planet by 2050,
– Making investment and financial flows consistent with a future of low greenhouse gas emissions.
His Royal Highness is encouraging business to provide “practical leadership to this common project”. As well as looking to create and accelerate sustainable industries, the mandate also asks signatories to consider sustainable innovations and practices within your business.
