Companies are reporting ambitious climate targets and disclosing clearer, more comparable and meaningful sustainability information.
As the EU navigates a critical period for its economic and environmental future, recent developments expose a troubling disconnect between political promises and policy action. What should we expect from our elected leaders when the foundations of sustainable competitiveness are being dismantled?
