Sustainability, a case of Infobesity? How to get relevant information in a sea of irrelevance

Sustainability - Recognising the Relevant from the Rest

Popular interest in sustainability is increasing exponentially over time. 


The relevance of the subject to our daily lives has increased the need to undertsnad the issue.  Many businesses seek to become more sustainable but don't fully grasp what that means.


The internet shows that the use of the keyword 'sustainability' has increased to 135,000 mentions per month (it increased to 140,000 during the G7 summit).  'Global Warming' attracts 110,000 mentions per month and 'Climate Change' is even higher at 201,000 mentions per month.


In all likelihood, this volume will increase as we head closer to COP 26.


Keeping abreast of all this information would be a distractive process for your business and it is likely that you have better uses for your time.


That said there may be information may be of particular interest to your business hidden within this ocean of data.  That one nugget of information may give you a competitive advantage over your competition. By the same token there is the element of FOMO where your competitor can find an edge through better research.


Trying to locate these relevant nuggets from the rest can be extremely frustrating given the volume of information.  .It may not merit the cost of a dedicated internal resource of your business to simply conduct constant research.  Thta presents a dilemma.
