Organisations are coming under an increasing amount of pressure to do business more sustainably. As a result, ESG (environmental, social, governance) considerations are now a key part of companies’ strategic plans and roadmaps. At Ipsos we leverage research specialisms and cross-sector expertise to understand governments, businesses, and citizens to inform better decision making when it comes to all aspects of environment, social and governance (ESG).
The ESG Imperative: Ipsos' foundational perspectivesIpsos France
Whilst we know that global concerns will usually be dominated by immediate issues, whether that be the COVID-19 pandemic or inflation, Ipsos data indicates climate change, poverty and social inequality remain constant and significant worries that unite people across the world.
The solution to tackling these issues will lie in governments and industry pursuing economic, social and environmental sustainability in tandem – what we at Ipsos refer to as People, Planet and Prosperity.
Addressing Sustainability Exposures through Corporate Social Responsibility i...ijtsrd
There has been considerable progress in holding companies accountable for their social responsibility performance. However, progress on socio economic and environmental impact of their practices has been more limited thereby creating an atmosphere of unfavorable business conduct and sustainability exposures. The absent of internationally recognized standards of corporate social responsibility in Nigeria have further aggravated the issue. There have also been little to no report on corporate responsibility in relation to enterprises overall economic relevance to the economy, import dependency, corruption, labour standards and eco efficiency in Nigeria. To this end, the study examined the extent to which organizations' corporate social responsibility tackles sustainability exposure as required by the Global Reporting Initiative. Survey and content analysis designs were used. Data were collected from primary and secondary sources of six Nigerian companies. T test and ANOVA were also used for the hypotheses tests. It was discovered that organizations' corporate social responsibility significantly addresses sustainability exposure through Global Reporting Initiative and other results. It was recommended that companies in Nigeria should adopt the global reporting initiative as a means of observing their corporate social responsibility. Regulatory authority should as a matter of urgency ensure that companies report on their sustainability impacts on the economy. Bassey Ekpo | Emmanuel E. Okon | Sunny B.

8. Upon reviewing former CEO Jeff Swartz’s final blog post, do you agree or disagree with his
finding that the business world has shifted to sustainability
Solution
Yes agree that world is shifting to sustainability
The era of corporations integrating sustainable practices is being surpassed by a new age of
corporations actively transforming the market to make it more sustainable.
Business sustainability has come a long way. From the dawn of the modern environmental
movement and the establishment of environmental regulations in the 1970s, it has become a
strategic concern driven by market forces. Today, more than 90 percent of CEOs state that
sustainability is important to their company’s success, and companies develop sustainability
strategies, market sustainable products and services, create positions such as chief sustainability
officer, and publish sustainability reports for consumers, investors, activists, and the public at
large.
This trend will not abate anytime soon. Surveys show that 88 percent of business school students
think that learning about social and environmental issues in business is a priority, and 67 percent
want to incorporate environmental sustainability into their future jobs. To meet this demand, the
percentage of business schools that require students to take a course dedicated to business and
society increased from 34 percent in 2001 to 79 percent in 2011, and specific academic programs
on business sustainability can now be found in 46 percent of the top 100 US master of business
administration (MBA) programs.
For all this interest, we should expect the world to become more sustainable. But problems such
as climate change, water scarcity, species extinction, and many others continue to worsen.
Sustainable business is reaching the limits of what it can accomplish in its present form. It is
slowing the velocity at which we are approaching a crisis, but we are not changing course.
Instead of tinkering around the edges of the market with new products and services, business
must now transform it. That is the focus of the next phase of business sustainability, and we can
see signs that it is emerging.
The first phase of business sustainability, what we at the University of Michigan’s Erb Institute
call “enterprise integration,” is founded on a model of business responding to market shifts to
increase competitive positioning by integrating sustainability into preexisting business
considerations. By contrast, the next phase of business sustainability, what we call “market
transformation,” is founded on a model of business transforming the market. Instead of waiting
for a market shift to create incentives for sustainable practices, companies are creating those
shifts to enable new forms of business sustainability.
Enterprise integration is geared toward present-day measures of success; market transformation
will help companies create tomorrow’s measures. The first is focused on reducing
unsustainability; the second is focuse.

have in particular for the future rating of companies and for society in general?

Expert Insight from IBM Institute of Business Value
Environmental sustainability is no longer just a corporate social responsibility (CSR) issue. Nor is it important only for compliance and reporting purposes. It is, in fact, an imperative in the fullest sense of the word.
Digital technologies—especially exponential ones—make possible many market-based mechanisms that drive change and innovation. In particular, they can support incentive mechanisms for action at a scale and speed that would be impossible through the traditional means of regulations and government intervention.

This research paper seeks to establish Environmental sustainability Accounting and the performance of Oil and Gas Companies in Rivers State, Nigeria. To achieve the objective of the study, hypotheses were formulated, and a review of related literature was made. The hypotheses were tested using multiple regression analysis with the aid of E View, using a 5 level of significance. Based on the findings of this study, we conclude that the disclosure of human resources disclosure and environmental sustainability disclosure significantly affect the financial performance of oil and gas companies in Rivers State. It was recommended among others that the government should put in place suitable legislation for all companies to make adequate disclosure of their activities to the Environment, and firms should formulate and implement environmentally friendly policies.

Climate exposure is defined as the potential gains or losses in an investor’s portfolio due to climate change. It encapsulates both climate-related financial risks as well as opportunities. Though climate exposure has many components, it can be divided into three broad subcategories: • Policy and legal exposure: The financial effects of policies designed to mitigate climate change (e.g., carbon pricing schemes) or policies designed to adapt to it (e.g., water management infrastructure and rationing) (Burton, Diringer, and Smith 2006); or litigation or adjudication related to climate change (Massachusetts v. Environmental Protection Agency 2007; Guyatt et al. 2011). • Physical and ecological exposure: The financial implications of changes to earth’s ecosystems. For example: the costs of shorter and warmer winters on the ski industry (Bebb 2015); the financial impacts of hotter weather on agricultural yields; or the economic consequences of severe weather/climatic events (e.g., Hurricane Sandy) that disrupt human economic activity. • Market and economic exposure: Human responses to the aforementioned policy and ecological changes that will reshape businesses, industries, economies, and markets (e.g., growth in clean energy technologies that threaten the fossil fuel industry) (Guyatt et al. 2011).

Climate Change All over the World .pptxsairaanwer024
Climate change refers to significant and lasting changes in the average weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It encompasses both global warming driven by human emissions of greenhouse gases and the resulting large-scale shifts in weather patterns. While climate change is a natural phenomenon, human activities, particularly since the Industrial Revolution, have accelerated its pace and intensity
"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
