ERM’s Post

If you haven't had a chance to register for this ERM Sustainability Institute webinar, there is still time. Double Materiality is at the core of the emerging ESG disclosure architecture - that is, understanding, on the one hand, what impacts companies have on the world, and, on the other hand, how climate, biodiversity loss, social inequality and other issues affect private sector operations. Join me and my ERM colleagues Victoria Cross Nicolas Heath Jessica Urdangarin Justin Nelson and panelists from EFRAG Pedro Santiago Faria , Vopak Sohaib Arshad and Kenvue Pamela Gill Alabaster for what I am sure will be an exciting discussion. What questions would you like to be addressed in this discussion? What are the challenges you are encountering? Let us know!

Our Disclosure Series continues with a webinar on Double Materiality: what it means, how it works, and when to conduct an assessment. Tune in January 11 for the discussion between experts from ERM, ERM Sustainability Institute, Vopak, EFRAG, Kenvue on emerging best practices, regulatory requirements for double materiality, and more.

Sustainability represents a comprehensive framework that encompasses a sequence of interrelated steps, involving both environmental and corporate actions. It commences with the initial phase of conducting an environmental impact assessment, which includes activities such as gathering baseline data, performing risk assessments, and preparing an impact statement report. A crucial aspect of sustainability is the establishment and implementation of an environmental management plan, which follows a continuous plan-do-check-act cycle and actively engages the host community. This is facilitated through regular and standardized reporting, aiming to inform the community about their environment and the company's ongoing efforts to prioritize safety throughout production processes. Additionally, sustainability necessitates the oversight of environmental regulatory bodies to ensure compliance with relevant regulations and promote environmental justice. How does the ESG framework fit into this?

After a week off, its always great to come back to some feedback from another happy PS Partnerships & Consultancy Ltd client!! 😊 The end client, a chemical distributor, needed ESG support and guidance for their EcoVadis application. As a team, PS Partnerships: 🌳 Calculated carbon emissions and developed their first carbon reduction plan 🌳 Prepared a Sustainability Report detailing all of their amazing CSR activities and initiatives 🌳 Carried out training on information security, ethics, sustainable supply chains, reducing environmental impact, and more! 🌳 Implemented new policies and procedures 🌳 Strengthened supplier assessments and understanding of the impact of their supply chain 🥇 All resulting in a Gold medal meaning they are in the top 5% of companies assessed by EcoVadis If you are looking to strengthen your ESG/CSR activities and need some help, get in touch!

Science Based Targets initiative recommends Beyond Value Chain Mitigation SBTi has issued two reports in February 2024: -      Above and Beyond: an SBTi report on the design and implementation of Beyond Value Chain Mitigation (BVCM), and -      Raising the bar: an SBTi report on accelerating corporate adoption of Beyond Value Chain Mitigation (BVCM) BVCM is defined as: mitigation actions or investments that fall outside a company’s value chain, including activities that avoid or reduce GHG emissions, or remove and store GHGs from the atmosphere. Companies should take action, or make investments outside their own value chains to mitigate GHG emissions in addition to their near-term and long-term science-based targets. SBTi recommends that companies use BVCM measures to accelerate progress towards net-zero. It is one of the four key components of SBTi’s Corporate Net-Zero Standard. SBTi also want companies to report annually on their BVCM measures, which should be >50% of their remaining scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions. The BVCM claims must be verified by independent 3rd parties. I am very pleased with this recommendation by SBTi, as it will act as a push to accelerate towards a Net Zero future. Surely, we will see more companies joining CarbonLeap’s enthusiastic group of pioneering customers, willing to go above and beyond the mandatory reductions required by law and regulations. #climateaction #scope3 #pioneers #supplychains
