Sustainable Business and Organisations

Sustainable business organisations

Middlesex University research is exploring the ways in which business has the potential to impact on global and local sustainability. This can be through their negative impacts on nature and contributions to climate change, but it can also come as positive impacts with businesses offering innovative approaches to tackling climate change and creating 'nature positive' solutions. 

Research is working with large and small businesses to explore the circular economy business models, biodiversity and business, and the role of business in changing patterns of consumption. This research is leading to real changes that support the planet and contributing to developing academic research in this important and emerging area.
