Aligning environmental metrics with the SDGs 🌎 This infographic presents a selection of key environmental metrics that can be aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to highlight the importance of sustainability in business practices. While these examples are not exhaustive, they serve to underscore the potential for corporate environmental reports to reflect a commitment to global sustainability targets. Transparent reporting of direct and indirect greenhouse gas emissions paves the way for credible climate action (SDG 13), showcasing a company's dedication to reducing its carbon footprint. The meticulous reporting of emissions and energy consumption—renewable or otherwise—can display adherence to SDG 7, underscoring the pursuit of affordable and clean energy through enhanced energy efficiency measures. The act of measuring and disclosing water consumption directly contributes to the objectives of SDG 6, emphasizing the sustainable management and efficient use of water resources. This not only signals corporate responsibility but also encourages the safeguarding of water as an invaluable communal asset. Furthermore, the generation and categorization of waste reported by corporations can lead to strategies that resonate with SDG 12, driving responsible consumption and production. It emphasizes the significance of not solely focusing on positive impacts but also recognizing and mitigating negative environmental footprints. Ultimately, the integration of such metrics into business strategy and communication underlines a transparent, accountable approach to sustainability. It illuminates the path for businesses to not only assess and report on their environmental performance but also to embed their commitment to sustainability within their core operations, thereby contributing constructively to the SDGs.

New research from S&P Global Sustainable1, with support from Capitals Coalition, reveals that publicly listed companies generate trillions of dollars in unaccounted-for environmental costs annually. The report highlights the hidden costs to the environment and society of companies' direct operations across more than 12,000 listed companies. Key findings include: - These listed companies were responsible for $3.71 trillion in unpriced environmental costs across their direct operations in 2021 — equal to more than 4% of global GDP that year. - About one quarter of the companies generated unpriced environmental costs larger than their net income. - GHG emissions, air pollution, and land use are the largest sources of environmental costs generated by these companies. 🔎 Read the report here: https://okt.to/z80cyp #SustainableFinance #EnvironmentalImpact #CorporateResponsibility #GHG #AirPollution #LandUseIimpacts #NaturalCapital Esther Whieldon Matt MacFarland Alasdair Wilson Georgina Mattiacci Rosanna Brady Oliver Goodearl MSc (Hons)
