I disagree, investor pressure can push for sustainable practices too.

B and C are huge factors nowadays!

Wait, are we sure D isn't influencing sustainability too?
LU

Totally agree, D is not about sustainability.
KI

A is definitely an external driver.

I agree with the others that A, B, and C are external. But I’m not completely confident about D being the right answer. It could be tricky!
SH

I’m a bit confused. Isn’t investor pressure a part of the internal factors? I feel like D doesn’t fit with the others.

I remember a practice question that mentioned how customer concerns can push companies towards sustainability. So, I feel like C is definitely an external driver.
NO

I think A, B, and C are all external drivers, but I'm not sure about D. Investor pressure seems more about profit than sustainability.
DE
Dexter

Okay, let me think this through. Scientific research, increased taxation, and customer concerns all seem like they would drive sustainability. Investor pressure is the only one that doesn't fit.
DA

Investor pressure for higher dividends seems like the obvious answer here. That's an internal driver focused on profits, not sustainability.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I need to carefully consider each of the options and think about which one would not push management towards sustainability.
AM

This question seems straightforward. I think the key is to identify the external drivers that would not lead management to adopt greater sustainability.

I'm a little confused by this question. I'm not super familiar with Alibaba Cloud services, so I'm not sure exactly what kind of data can be collected for monitoring an app on their Kubernetes platform. I'll have to make an educated guess on this one.

I've got a good feeling about this one. The question is clear that F-OFDM uses a fixed sub-carrier bandwidth of 15KHz, and that this can resist stronger interference. I'm confident the answer is True.
KI

I remember something about customers trusting support being crucial for their success. Maybe that's a good choice?
AU

B is the obvious choice here. Who cares about what customers or investors think? It's the government regulations that really drive sustainability initiatives.
RO
Rochell

Ha! Investor pressure for higher dividends, that's a good one. Definitely the correct answer. Shareholders are all about that bottom line, not the planet.
VI
Vilma

I'm not so sure. B seems like the right answer to me. Increased taxation on emissions and waste is a direct external factor that would incentivize companies to go green.
HA
Hassie

Exactly, it's a direct financial incentive for companies to reduce their environmental impact.
MA
Marcos

Yes, increased taxation on emissions and waste would definitely push companies to be more environmentally conscious.
TE

D) Investor pressure for higher dividends.

BR
Brett

A) Scientific research demonstrating the adverse impacts of global warming.
AL
Aleisha

I disagree, I think C is the correct answer. Customers' concerns over labor practices can definitely push companies to be more sustainable and ethical.
GA
Gary
1 year ago
Hmm, I think the answer is D. Investor pressure for higher dividends doesn't really drive businesses to be more sustainable. It's more about maximizing profits than environmental responsibility.
ED
Edelmira

It's important for businesses to consider all external drivers for sustainability, not just investor pressure.
JA

Investors usually focus on financial returns rather than environmental impact.
