Businesses are overwhelmed with ESG reporting and being rated by numerous rating agencies with all of them using their own distinct methodologies. At the same time, companies feel pressure to make pledges that they often do not know how to achieve. Furthermore, businesses see the opportunity of using sustainability arguments in their PR, and marketing. Yet, often these do not reflect their operations and sets them up for scandals. It is a risk that even the biggest brands face. There is a famous example of sustainability claims of a very known consumer goods brand being inaccurate 98% of time.
