Exciting Changes Ahead for B Lab! 🚀🌍 Citizens and institutions expect more from business. As the world around us is evolving rapidly, so is the global B Corp movement. To address today's most pressing societal and environmental challenges, we're embarking on the biggest transformation in our 17-year history. At B Lab, we are advancing our standards to reflect the leadership role B Corps play worldwide. While this change can be inspiring, we understand it also comes with challenges. Some B Corps are already leading the way, while others need more time to prepare. We're committed to making this transition as smooth as possible by upskilling the B Corp community and all our stakeholders step-by-step. 💪 With the recent consultation on our new standards concluding in March 2024, we've already reviewed over 16,000 pieces of the feedback, and we'll be sharing insights soon. Our goal is to support companies through this transition and equip them to tackle today’s challenges. Stay tuned as we continue this journey toward a more inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy!

🌍⌛ Today, 1 August, 2024, is #EarthOvershootDay: the day we’ve used up more of our planet’s resources than it can regenerate in a year. This date has advanced by five months over the past 60 years, and now, we would need 1.75 Earths to sustain humanity's current consumption rates. Businesses often contribute to this problem by consuming more resources than the planet can regenerate and prioritizing short-term profits over long-term sustainability. But #BCorps are proving that businesses can—and must—also be part of the solution. By moving away from economic principles that promote greed, wealth inequality, and ecological collapse, the #BCorpMovement is working towards a future where businesses regenerate rather than deplete our planet’s resources. As the climate crisis intensifies, it is crucial to accelerate our efforts to #MoveTheDate of Earth Overshoot Day. We must shift from incremental improvements to substantial, impactful actions. This urgency is why the standards for #BCorpCertification are evolving.
