Amongst other key issues recognized, Robert Harris (2009-2010 AICPA chair) acknowledged sustainability and the triple bottom line as important considerations for the institute. Read more about what Robert Harris said on this and other topics at his keynote luncheon here.
Most notably, Harris realizes that CPAs actually can do something positive for the environment, and by doing so they can bring value to both their firms and their clients. I found this to be very exciting – the fact that this topic was even brought up by the AICPA represents a change in the way CPAs are thinking today. Now I know that I am not alone in my quest to be a green CPA.
