What Is Corporate Sustainability Reporting?

Corporate Sustainability Reporting or CSR refers to a regulation and management system employed by companies to keep check of their environmental and social impact on the world. It is a yearly report made by companies to self-regulate their brand reputation through charitable, philanthropic and social activities. Although CSR is usually done by companies as an initiative of their own, many nations and organizations have made it mandatory for large scale companies to have a CSR model. It is also a way to make the stakeholders of the company and the general public aware of their yearly working system.

What are the benefits of CSR?

To have a long-term customer or client, a brand doesn’t need just a good product. It needs to show what it stands for, what values it represents. Here are some benefits to incorporating CSR into your company:

It helps the company to be more conscious of its social, economical and moral responsibility It improves a company’s reputation for its employees and potential recruits CSR limits the risk of scandals and mishaps in the environment. It enhances the perception of the general public, as people prefer to use products and services of a company which is environment conscious.

How to write a CSR report?

Without careful efforts, a CSR report can appear extremely dull and difficult to read. A well written CSR attracts investors, customers as well as potential employees. So here’s how to write an attractive CSR report:

  • The report will be online, so use a directory or table of contents in the beginning for all subjects mentioned in the report
  • Give an overview of your business, its operations and recent dealings
  • An optimistic and warm letter from the CEO that adds a human element to the report
  • Mention your goals for environmental sustainability
  • Mention your progress towards said goals (use measurable numbers and percentages for more clarity)
  • Add real life incidents, narratives or interviews to make the report more readable
  • Mention what your priorities will be for the next term in regards to corporate social responsibility, how the company will tackle major issues
  • Use detailed and easy to understand infographics and charts.
  • If the report is large, make sure to add the sources from which the report is compiled.
  • Add the contact details of every major person involved in the handling of mentioned issues.
  • Have your report audited by a third party for better validation

What are some good examples of CSR?

Writing a CSR report can be daunting and exhausting, especially without inspiration. Here some excellent examples of CSR done flawlessly by corporate companies that we can learn from. (THIS PARANTHESIS IS NOT TO BE INCLUDED IN FINAL BLOG- THE LINKS ARE TO THE RESPECTIVE COMPANIES’ CSR REPORTS)

  • Google: https://sustainability.google/in 2019, Google celebrated 13 years of Carbon neutrality. It is also the world’s largest annual corporate purchaser of renewable energy.
  • Ford Motor Company: https://www.india.ford.com/about-ford/community/csr/#:~:text=Ford%20India%20lays%20particular%20importance,and%20pollution%20of%20water%20bodies the firm took a Sustainable Workforce initiative under which they improved employees’ health, efficiency and productivity. Its global safety standards have reduced workplace accidents by 90%.
  • Bosch: https://www.bosch.in/our-company/our-responsibility/corporate-social-responsibility/during the early Covid-19 outbreak, Bosch India pledged more than 50 crore rupees for pandemic relief efforts. 9 lakh masks were donated to second level Covid-19 warriors.
  • Lego: https://www.lego.com/en-us/sustainability the firm has pledged to go completely carbon neutral by 2022. The toy company has also announced that they will replace from plastic packaging their toys to paper packaging.
  • Ben & Jerry’s: https://www.benjerry.com/whats-new/2014/corporate-social-responsibility-history the ice-cream company donates 7.5% of their pretax earnings to social causes since 1985. It has remained one of the few brands that have consistently spoken out and taken action against acts of injustice around the world.

While CSR report can look different for every company, its objective is the same throughout- to be more sustainable, ethical and responsible. To do well not just for the brand, but also the environment. Companies that stick with yearly CSR reports usually tend to see profits in all areas. Socially responsible companies tend to focus on the approach called Triple Bottom Line. Here, three areas are taken into consideration- Profit, People and Planet. ‘Do well by doing good’ is their motto.

So if your company is not legally required to do CSR, it is still wise not to wait. CSR sets a standard for your company among your competitors. Committing to CSR is a step in the right direction, not just for your brand, but for everyone involved.

The Future of the Tropics: Opportunities and Challenges

The tropics, a region encircling the Earth's equator, have long been perceived as lush rainforests with exotic animals and unchanging weather. However, they are also often associated with poverty, unstable governments, and environmental destruction. A new report, "The State of the Tropics," provides a deeper and more nuanced understanding of this diverse region.

Changing Perceptions

Historically, the tropics were misunderstood, with Aristotle even claiming that no civilization could thrive there. The report calls for a shift in perspective, urging recognition of the tropics from within and embracing local wisdom and experience. Compiled by 12 institutions, this comprehensive 400-page report delves into demographics, health, science, economics, biodiversity, and climate change..

Population Growth

Currently, the tropics are home to 40% of the world's population and 55% of children under five. Population growth is particularly rapid in Africa. By 2050, over half of the global population and 67% of young children will reside in the tropics. The region is expected to add 3 billion people by the end of the century, necessitating a rethinking of global priorities in aid, development, research, and education.

Economic and Social Challenges

A booming population drives increased demand for food, water, and resources. Tropical economies are growing 20% faster than those in temperate regions but still house two-thirds of the world's extreme poverty. While extreme poverty has decreased in Southeast Asia and Central America, it has doubled in Central and Southern Africa since the 1980s. Despite these challenges, there have been improvements, including a decline in undernourishment, rising life expectancy, and reduced maternal and child mortality.

Health Issues

The tropics face unique health challenges, with diseases like dengue fever and malaria remaining significant threats. These diseases are rarely found in temperate regions but are major health concerns in tropical countries.

Land and Environmental Struggles

Growing populations and consumption have led to land-use clashes. Indigenous groups struggle to maintain control over their lands as corporations seek resources for agriculture, livestock, and commodities. Conservationists are working to preserve vital ecosystems, as the tropics host 80% of Earth's terrestrial biodiversity and 95% of mangrove and coral reef biodiversity. Unfortunately, forest loss continues, especially in Oceania.

Oceanic Pressures

Marine resources in the tropics, including coral reefs and mangroves, face unprecedented pressures. Overfishing and destructive practices have depleted species. Mangroves, crucial for coastal protection and carbon storage, are being rapidly destroyed for aquaculture and development. Climate change and ocean acidification further threaten these ecosystems.

Future Challenges

Climate change poses significant challenges for the tropics, including extreme weather, rising seas, and changing precipitation patterns. These changes could impact agriculture and increase the number of refugees and regional conflicts. The tropics are expanding into temperate zones, which will have implications for water resource management and agricultural systems.

Conclusion

The future of the tropics is one of rising influence and wealth, alongside ongoing struggles with poverty, hunger, health standards, biodiversity, climate change, and resource conservation. The report emphasizes the importance of sustainable development and conservation to safeguard resources for future generations. The tropics hold great potential and influence, making it crucial to address these challenges thoughtfully and effectively.

Know About Forest Carbon Offsets & Their Relevance

Forest carbon credit considered as a non visible forest product” that can be a viable alternative source of income for forest landowners. It’s a metric ton of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e), of whichthe emission is newly sequestered and is purchased by GHG emitters as a cost-control measure to make up for emissions occurring elsewhere.

Managing forests for carbon emission offsetting gives the world the opportunity to reverse or at least sequestered the emissions that they have already made or they are about to make into the atmosphere. The total GHG emissions are increasing rapidly. Most of the GHG emissions of all time have been done in the last 40 years of our existence. More GHG emission mean climatic shifts which leads to intensive droughts somewhere and acute floods in other areas of the world. Because of those blindly done deforestation which hampers the smooth functioning of the forest and gets in the middle of the process of habitats having their share of biodiversity.

Researches around the world point to a fact that forests can play a vital role in mitigating the inimical effects of climate change and can help in putting a shackle on this ever-increasing global warming. Quality and Quantity of herbs, restoring the disbalances caused by humans in nature, water as a resource in quantity & quality, providing wildlife a habitat to call home and protecting biodiversity in that habitat.

Forest & Carbon Offset

To get an understanding of the carbon offset markets, we need to know how CO2 is measured and traded for various purposes. CO2 being the major contributor as the GHGs in the atmosphere, promoting global warming. All other gases are not actually come that much into consideration because CO2 is more easily measurable that others. The carbon unit in which it is measured is “metric tons of CO2 Equivalent” often seen written as MtCO2e or tCO2e & also called as “Carbon Credit or Carbon offset”. Currently sellers of carbon offsets are majorly forest landowners who are looking to opening up different forest-based revenue streams by helping out the GHG emitters in exchange of a handsome payday.

Carbon Marketplaces

There are two distinct types of carbon markets; voluntary and compliance markets

Carbon markets are divided into two subdivisions – voluntary &compliance markets.

Voluntary markets exist where companies or individuals buy carbon credits for purely a voluntary basis. Many companies voluntarily purchase carbon credits to demonstrate their commitment to protecting the environment and to demonstrate corporate social responsibility.

Voluntary markets are there for the individuals and companies so that they buy the credits for the sole purpose of showcasing their concern towards the environment, its well-being and their willingness to go above and beyond to correct it. It fulfils their commitment to live up to the corporate social responsibility they owe to the society.

Prices for the carbon offset in voluntary market, globally, can fall anywhere between a wide range.Forest authorities & land usage projects are somewhat larger voluntary carbon project categories than any other kind. There are numerous factors that influence the price determination of carbon credits at the very point in time for e.g.,the type & location of project that is put up against asking for the credits, additional deemed project benefits that will play out to be an influencing factor, marketing efforts & many others.

The emission stays within limit as it is cancelled out by the very nature of the deal and there is no margin left to betray the environment in any case.

Compliance Carbon Market

Compliance carbon markets are such marketplaces through which “regulated by the cap & trade” entities obtain & surrender emissions allowances or better known as ‘offsets’ in order to meet predetermined regulatory targets.

In case of cap & trade programs; participants i.e., both emitters and intermediaries such as financial institutions; both are allowed to trade allowances to make profit from the unused allowances or for meeting regulatory requirements.
