Climate change is increasingly becoming a global challenge, creating a dire need for socially responsible companies of all sizes to consider the effects of climate change and their respective roles in helping to mitigate its effects. No longer can companies turn a blind eye to their involvement in meeting the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
Not only is this action required by companies that have operations that directly affect the environment through physical waste and emissions to develop strategies for countering their environmental impact. But rather a collective effort of all companies is needed to craft a framework in engaging and participating in Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) initiatives.
