The global environmental crisis is one of the major challenges facing humanity today. Given the role businesses play in the degradation of the environment and natural resources, various stakeholders have called on them to assume their social responsibility. CSR thus emerged as a voluntary contribution by businesses toward achieving sustainable development.
