We’re as proud as a peacock. Yesterday we received the 2015 Golden Peacock Global Award for Sustainability in London.

Moving forward and advancing in the world is inevitable. The manual way of doing things is quickly being replaced with technology and with a more superior process. As companies find ways to enhance their capabilities in their global markets, they are quickly identifying what solutions are making their processes, with regard to world wide regulatory compliance, a much more manageable and streamlined practice.

General Motors CEO Mary Barra and her leadership team last month outlined the company’s plans to capitalize on the future of personal mobility by owning the customer relationship beyond the vehicle, building upon nearly two decades of connectivity leadership.

Late last month the United Nations approved the Goals for Sustainable Development (SDGs), the most comprehensive and ambitious set of 17 goals to end poverty, fight inequality and injustice, and tackle climate change by 2030. But to achieve these goals it's going to take a village, or rather an entire planet, to succeed.

By reimagining the way products are built and designed, we have the power to counter negative environmental and social impact at a massive scale.

Keep America Beautiful, the nation’s leading nonprofit which envisions a country where every community is a clean, green and beautiful place to live, today issued the following statement:

GM’s purpose is to serve our customers and improve the communities in which we live and work. In order to achieve this, we need to think holistically and realistically about our impact and engage our entire value chain, including our supply chain.

Therein lies huge opportunity.
