Hands up who is getting confused by all of these sustainability acronyms because I certainly am 🙋♀️ ... At what point did these standard-setters decide that a jumble of letters was the new standard? And instead of using catchy names they would let those letters stand for words that anaesthetise our brains? My mission today, come up with some sort of word play that would help us hold onto what CSRD is and how it relates to ESRS. Here I go: ⬆ CSRD = Corporate Sustainability Reporting 𝐷𝑖𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑒.

Hi friend, 🌍 Navigating the world of sustainability can feel like learning a new language, right? Terms like life cycle assessment and environmental impact analysis can be overwhelming. I remember when I first encountered these concepts. It felt like I was drowning in jargon. But once you get the hang of it, you’ll see how these ideas can empower you to make smarter, greener decisions. Our latest blog post breaks down these key terms in a simple, easy-to-understand way. Ready to speak sustainability fluently? Dive in and let’s get started. https://lnkd.in/dN_2Pa_m #SustainabilityEducation #GreenBusiness #LifeCycleAssessment #EnvironmentalImpact

Halfway through my sustainability accelerator at OnePointFive (opf.degree) , and it’s been quite intense, filled with new knowledge, new connections, and plenty of practice. Now have a much better grasp on the soup of acronyms such as SBTi, CDP, GHG protocol, ISO 14064, NFRD, etc. Did my first calculation of Scope 1,2,3 emissions with Climate Project’s BEE tool, analyzing and recommending how to reduce the carbon footprint. The LCA assessment is another useful tool to understand the environmental impact on a product level. The combination of GHG accounting for Scope 1-3 along with LCA gives a more comprehensive understanding of the environmental impact, not limited to emissions, but also helps to understand the impact on health, water resources, toxicity, land use, and others. While only few businesses are prepared to undertake a thorough analysis using both the GHG accounting and LCA, let alone disclose them, the rapidly evolving regulatory landscape should change it rather soon. It's been a very fulfilling journey so far. Looking forward to more!
