The sustainability field represents an infinitely large bubble that engulfs every social, environmental, or economic issue society decides to highlight. Sustainability runs into several problems because the concept's boundaries are in constant change. Sustainable development occurs when entities decide to minimize their impacts that contribute to these issues. Focusing on how an organization impacts every issue and how to reduce that impact is not feasible and does not generate enough change to develop sustainably. On the contrary, the concept is abused when organizations narrow their focus to only the impacts that society considers important at the time. These problems can be addressed by sustainability reporting. Sustainability reporting looks to measure an organization's impacts in a way so that progress on these impacts is comparable across several organizations. Different reports have evolved for the government, the private sector, and educational institutions. These reporting types were evaluated to determine what methods in each provoke involvement in reporting, organizational change, and contribution to a sustainable global economy. Methods that matched these criteria were included in creating a standardized sustainability report that can be used by any type of organization. The new standardized sustainability report assesses what areas are vital to an organization's success, the risks and opportunities in those areas related to global change, and how to measure progress towards sustainable development. Use of the standardized sustainability report will rejuvenate the sustainability field while providing value to organizations.
