Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
What is ESG and why is it important for businesses?
ESG stands for Environmental, Social, and Governance. It represents the three key areas companies evaluate to measure their impact on society and the planet. ESG is important because investors, regulators, and stakeholders increasingly expect companies to operate responsibly, mitigate risks, and drive long-term value.
What is sustainability, and how is it different from ESG?
Sustainability refers to practices and strategies that balance environmental, social, and economic needs to ensure resources and opportunities are available for future generations. It is a broad concept focused on the long-term impact of human actions on the planet and society.
ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance), on the other hand, is a specific framework used to evaluate a company’s performance and risk management in these three key areas. ESG focuses on measurable criteria, often tied to investment and regulatory standards.
Key Differences:
Scope: Sustainability is a broader concept encompassing global challenges like climate change and social equity, while ESG is a structured approach to assessing a company’s role in these areas.
Audience: Sustainability appeals to a wider audience, including consumers and communities, whereas ESG is primarily targeted at investors, regulators, and corporate decision-makers.
Focus: Sustainability emphasizes vision and values, while ESG emphasizes metrics, performance, and compliance.
Both are essential for building a responsible business, but their focus and applications differ. Together, they create a comprehensive approach to addressing environmental and social challenges.
What is the difference between ESG communications and sustainability communications?
ESG communications focus on reporting environmental, social, and governance metrics to meet regulatory, investor, and stakeholder requirements. Sustainability communications go beyond data, telling engaging stories about a company’s efforts to address environmental and social challenges. Both are essential for building trust, inspiring action, and meeting diverse stakeholder expectations.
