What is the "triple bottom line"?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks about the concept known as the 'triple bottom line,' which is a framework for measuring an organization's social, environmental, and financial performance.
Option 1: 'People, planet, profits' correctly identifies the three components of the triple bottom line—people (social impact), planet (environmental impact), and profits (economic viability).
Option 2: 'Cooperation, delegation, action' focuses on processes or management practices rather than sustainability outcomes, so it does not capture the triple bottom line idea.
Option 3: 'Policy, regulation, and laws' describes external governance mechanisms and legal frameworks, not the measurement of broad sustainability performance across social, environmental, and economic dimensions.
Option 4: 'Environmental protection, policy, and profits' emphasizes environmental aspects, plus policy, and profits, but it omits the explicit social dimension (People) that is essential to the triple bottom line concept.
In summary, only Option 1 aligns with the established definition of the triple bottom line by balancing social, environmental, and economic considerations in performance assessment.
