The economy is moving toward a more sustainable future, and with that comes the need for industries to be ESG compliant. To be ESG compliant, a company must invest in environmental and social issues rather than solely prioritizing profit. How should corporations handle ESG? What changes should they apply to attract investors looking for high ESG scores? How does ESG correlate with supplier inclusion?
In this episode, we discuss what ESG is, what it means for an economy, and why it’s a component of corporate social responsibility. We explain what environmental racism is and provide real-world examples. We share our thoughts on electric vehicles and the problem with renewable batteries. We also describe how companies, and their values, are being discussed on social media and what they can do to capitalize on that data.
