Today is Carbon Management Day! Celebrate with 3 Fun Facts from the Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management | U.S. Department of Energy: 1) December 1 is #CarbonManagement Day because 12.01 is the atomic weight of Carbon. 2) From FECM's blog today: "Safe and permanent geologic storage of carbon dioxide is proven. To date, more than a quarter of a billion tons of carbon dioxide has been captured and stored globally." That's over 250,000,000 metric tons of sequestered CO2! 3) Also according to FECM: By 2035, the Carbon Management industry has the potential to create over 100,000 good-paying jobs in construction and operation of new projects in the U.S. and additional associated economic benefits to local communities.

Question for my LinkedIn network. Is anyone looking at reporting under the new European Sustainability Reporting Standards (or your colleagues)? If so how are you approaching the Double Materiality Assessment to determine which of the 37 defined sub-topics are material and need to be reported on, in a way that is objective and auditable? Have you looked at an Open-Source Intelligence (OSInt) approach? Very interested to understand approaches. Thank you in advance! #esrs #csfd #dma #doublematerialityassessment #europeansustainabilityreportingstandards #corporatesustainabilityreportingdirective
