The Triple Bottom Line (TBL) is a sustainability framework that suggests organizations and governments should measure their success not just by traditional financial profit, but also by their impact on the environment and society.
The Three Ps Explained
People (Social Bottom Line): Focuses on social equity, fair labor practices, human rights, and community well-being. In the context of SDGs, this relates to goals like "No Poverty" and "Gender Equality."
Planet (Environmental Bottom Line): Focuses on ecological footprint, reducing waste, and protecting natural resources. This aligns with SDGs like "Climate Action" and "Life Below Water."
