Taking sustainability seriously: how common is ‘greenwashing’ and what can we do?
Manage episode 417957344 series 3572864
It is good business to be seen to be supporting the ‘green agenda’, and certainly bad news follows or is likely to follow an organisation that is not committed. But how would we know? Do security professionals really care and if so how is that reflected? The ‘environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG)’ concept is becoming more renowned but in what ways is it different and what are the barriers to embedding it in security practice? For example, what does the ‘social’ part of ESG refer to?
This webinar will discuss:
The extent and nature of ‘greenwashing’
The routes to developing meaningful measures of sustainability, and/or ESG
The potential of the security sector to set good examples
Chair: Dr Janice Goldstraw-White
