Abstract
When companies describe themselves as responsible and announce this publicly, should we take them seriously? Are they just mouthing slogans and pious aspirations on engaging in image building, or are we witnessing an emerging reality and the possibility of concrete action?
Take an active part, do not resign yourself to events, do not let yourself slide into the flood that carries all away.
(Mirabeau)
