Navigating the ESG legislation - What implications for carbon removal projects in Europe?
Tuesday, 24 September | 09:30 - 11:00 CET REGISTER HERE
Climate change is increasingly causing environmental damage and disturbing biodiversity across Europe. The European Commission approved a new legislation on environmental, social and governance (ESG) ratings in February 2024. The legislation aims to bolster investor’s confidence in sustainable products, while encouraging companies to explore carbon removal projects in Europe.
As such, carbon and biodiversity credits can also play a role in corporate environmental strategies. Some stakeholders believe that ESG ratings can benefit carbon removal companies. However, some are concerned about a lack of transparency on ESG ratings methodology and data sources.
Join this Euractiv Virtual Conference to discuss the ESG legislation and its implications for carbon removal projects in Europe.
