阿姆斯特丹，2023年3月16日 – King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands met with the Executive Committee (ExCo) of the 正规博彩十大网站 (WBCSD), during the ExCo dinner that took place on 15 March 2023 in Amsterdam and was hosted by Arcadis CEO 彼得Oosterveer. 国王和行政长官, 由21位全球ceo组成, 讨论了未来全球可持续性面临的挑战, and the role of business for leading the solutions and investments needed for a net zero, 自然积极和公平的未来.
在他 演讲 他向行政会议致词, King Willem-Alexander urged: “Sustainable living and sustainable growth have […] become absolute necessities. Strained international relations urge us to prevent wasting natural resources and energy. As multinationals, your responsibility and commitment to this cause are extremely important. Equally important is that you are now tackling it on a wider scale. 不仅仅是我们气候的紧急状况. Not only the pollution of our own habitat and the loss of our biodiversity. But also the inhuman working conditions and growing inequality.”
他继续说道:“个人领导力至关重要. I want to ask you to take the lead and ensure it’s seen. Make sure you take your entire supply chain and your business partners with you. Step out beyond the walls of the boardroom and head into society itself. The beauty of this era is that the world is welcoming companies that prove that things can be done differently. 每家公司都代表着一种基本选择. 选择“business”，然后是“as usual”.’ Or, 选择“企业”,激励勇气, 倡议, 创新, 创造一个正规博彩十大网站排名的未来. What the world needs now is men and women of enterprise.”
The dinner took place the evening before the ExCo Board Meeting, in which the WBCSD ExCo discussed the progress of the work plans that the almost 250 global businesses that are a member of WBCSD are working on.
2023年是实现正规博彩十大网站排名的关键一年, leading up to the important global stocktaking COP28 in Dubai as of 30 November, 离2030年只有不到7年的时间了.
