What is sustainability and what can companies do about it?

Sustainability in IT is something I am personally getting more and more interested in, especially when I hear how companies have turned sustainability initiatives into profitable business and competitive advantages. Something we didn't even think could be possible some 5 years ago.
With this video I will give you a quick introduction to sustainability, what is the world doing about it, why companies' role is essential in all this and finally I use HPE and HPE GreenLake as an example of sustainable business models.

Hard truth: economic growth is not sustainable - because the planet is finite.
Technology is not enough to achieve sustainability - especially when it's used to grow the business (except some specific businesses which do not increase overshoot)

[@TechEnthusiastInc]

I refuse to accept that. Time and again technology has proved impossible possible and moreover, brought us solutions we couldn't even think about before. So, not only I think it is possible but probable that we will get to a point where growth will be sustainable using the correct technology. But what we need more is the help of decision makers. Both, political and business entities need to be working together on this, worldwide. Technology can't help if we don't let it.
