The ninth annual State of Green Business report continues the tradition of opening a window into how, and how much, companies are improving their environmental performance and how much their efforts are making a difference. It looks at both common measures (energy, waste and carbon) and some less-common ones (for example, company's low carbon investments over the past five years).

The report also discusses 10 top sustainable trends in circular economy, technology and supply chain, green infrastruture and mining practices, as well as carbon recycling and green jobs among others to highlight future green opportunities for businesses. Moreover, it provides a quantitative view of corporate performance, leadership, and market drivers.
