Sustainability at Comerica: A Journey Begun
Comerica understands "sustainability" as an approach to conducting business that seeks to meet the needs of the present in ways that do not compromise the ability of future generations to meet their needs. In 2008, we made sustainability a core commitment of our company. We acknowledge that we have a responsibility to protect and preserve the environment as we conduct our business and operations and strive to promote the health, well-being, and prosperity of the people, businesses, and communities we serve. Finding solutions to the complex challenges of today’s world – rapid population growth, poverty, the decline of natural ecosystems, resource scarcity, global climate change, and energy security, among others – requires new ways of thinking and an ability to understand how economic, social, and environmental systems interrelate and affect one another. We believe that integrating such an understanding into the ways we do business will not only serve the best interests of people and the planet but will also improve our company's business performance and enable us to create long-term value for all of our stakeholders.
