ATLANTA - TelAve -- Cohesion's Updated New Action Plan: Sustainable Growth & Management. Twenty years after the launch of its first guide, the new edition is a concise, compliance-focused roadmap designed to help businesses navigate the urgent regulatory shifts in circular economy mandates and anti-greenwashing enforcement.

The original free booklet, launched in 2005, focused on early-stage corporate social responsibility (CSR). Cohesion's 2025/2027 Action Plan pivots sharply to address the mandates of the European Union's Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) and the Empowering Consumers for the Green Transition (ECGT) Directive, which are setting the global standard for verifiable sustainability.

"The rules of business have changed," said Melissa Fortune, CEO of Cohesion Verde. "Sustainability is no longer a voluntary choice; it is a mandated requirement. As noted in the Federal Sustainability Plan.  Our first booklet was a reference guide; this one is a concise, four-chapter action plan telling companies exactly what they must do right now to avoid regulatory risk, build genuine trust, and secure future growth.
