What is BeCause?

What is sustainability and what does it mean for a citizen?

Sustainability

“Sustainability” essentially refers to our world’s ability to thrive – Environmentally, Socially & Economically – in a durable manner that meets our needs & opportunities of today without sacrificing them for generations of tomorrow. In other words, it refers to our ability to sustain optimal conditions for People, Planet & Prosperity.
Our development towards a fair and healthy future depends on all of us contributing to each of these 3 sustainability dimensions and understanding how they go hand-in-hand. Here, both citizens & companies are key to the solution. Citizens impact companies as employees, consumers and investors while companies are the leading employers of people, consumers of planetary resources and generators of prosperity.
Therefore, we call on all citizens to review companies relevant to them with their power to impact in mind, so we can support and advance brands employing much needed sustainable strategies.

What are the SDGs and how do I find my key causes?

Causes

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is a framework of 17 overall goals - or causes - deemed the most critical by the United Nations for the world to work on today, in order to develop a sustainable tomorrow.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a framework of 17 overall goals (or causes) deemed the most critical by the United Nations for our progress towards a more sustainable tomorrow. At BeCause, we use the SDGs as a common and actionable language between Citizens & Companies. This allows you to focus on the specific SDG cause(s) you care the most about supporting in everyday life! Which cause do you cherish?

How does the CauseScore work?

CauseScore

The CauseScore rates the environmental, social, and economic sustainability of companies - according to their past, present and future footprint and leadership on sustainability issues of special importance within the industrial context operated in.
This rating system is designed to help both Citizen & Company users evaluate and compare the sustainability of a specific company with peers and own ambitions - in order to inform decision-making in the everyday marketplace.
