Majority of consumers willing to pay more for goods which use scarce natural resources

WASHINGTON DC, September 17, 2021 – A growing number of people are willing to pay extra for the things they buy, if it helps protect the planet’s scarce natural resources. A global survey carried out by Ipsos for the World Economic Forum has found that 71% of people agree that businesses whose activities use scarce natural resources should pay additional taxes – even if that pushes up the purchase price of goods and services. An even greater majority – 85% of adults across 28 countries – said they want to see “information on the use of scarce natural resources” available on product labelling.

ABOUT WORLD CERTIFICATION INSTITUTE (WCI)

WCI

World Certification Institute (WCI) is a global certifying and accrediting body that grants credential awards to individuals as well as accredits courses of organizations.

During the late 90s, several business leaders and eminent professors in the developed economies gathered to discuss the impact of globalization on occupational competence. The ad-hoc group met in Vienna and discussed the need to establish a global organization to accredit the skills and experiences of the workforce, so that they can be globally recognized as being competent in a specified field. A Task Group was formed in October 1999 and comprised eminent professors from the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Canada, Australia, Spain, Netherlands, Sweden, and Singapore.

World Certification Institute (WCI) was officially established at the start of the new millennium and was first registered in the United States in 2003. Today, its professional activities are coordinated through Authorized and Accredited Centers in America, Europe, Asia, Oceania and Africa.
