BATE Home Page

Welcome to the summer, 2000, offering of Business and the Environment, BMBA 65001!

This Internet site for Business and the Environment -- or simply BATE -- promotes a single purpose: to provide resources for the students to facilitate the summer, 2000, offering of BATE.

Two main goals will guide this offering of Business and the Environment :

A concrete understanding of the adaptation by and leadership of firms, industries, and the business community to the transition toward a sustainable future.
The preparation and display (written and oral reports and possibly an Internet site) of a sustainability plan for a particular firm, industry, or institution.
