The European Union's new regulatory landscape is setting the stage for transformative changes in how companies report sustainability.
With pending regulations set by the EU's Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), companies are facing new challenges in how they report on sustainability and environmental impact.
Michael Diegelmann, co-founder of the Global ESG Monitor, discusses the challenges and responsibilities of corporate communications in this new era of transparency and accountability that affects not just European entities but businesses across the globe.
At the core of this evolution is the need for nuanced, ethical communications that not only meet regulatory expectations but reflect a true commitment to sustainability and equity.
