CEO Amanda Long joins live online debate

Amanda Long, Corporate Culture’s CEO, will join an expert panel for the second in the series of Let’s talk sustainable living discussions on the Guardian Sustainable Business website on Wednesday 11 July.

The live online debate, which runs from 2pm to 4pm, will ask ‘Factory gate or people’s homes: where does a company’s responsibility end?’

The majority of a product’s negative impact occurs at the consumer use stage and companies are increasingly looking at how to change customer behaviour to limit this. To unpick some of the ethical dilemmas involved in tackling indirect impacts through the entire lifecycle of a product, Corporate Culture CEO Amanda Long will be joined by experts from the world of business, academia and the third sector.

The panelists, representing Marks & Spencer, Unilever, Edinburgh Business School, Allegheny College and WWF UK, will discuss the topic and respond to questions and comments from users of the Guardian Sustainable Business network, offering practical advice and drawing on their own experiences to highlight leading-edge ideas and examples.

Visit the Guardian Sustainable Business site on Wednesday 11 July from 2-4pm (BST) to take part, or to submit a question in advance, please complete the form here.
