NokConv: Nokia’s Sustainability excellence recognised

Sustainability, sadly, it’s not top priority for most consumers. But it is for Nokia and for pretty much forever have been taking sustainability pretty seriously.

Sustainability creates and maintains the conditions under which humans and nature can exist in productive harmony, that permit fulfilling the social, economic and other requirements of present and future generations.

Sustainability is important to making sure that we have and will continue to have,  the water, materials, and resources to protect human health and our environment.
