One of the key challenges in implementing ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) initiatives in companies, aside from the technical aspects such as materiality assessment, greenhouse gas reduction programs, and GCG (Good Corporate Governance) management, is effectively communicating these ESG efforts to stakeholders. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to the entire organizing committee of AHEMCE COMMFEST 2024, including the esteemed panel of judges involved. Let's take this opportunity to inspire and energize our ESG team members. Together, we can enhance our capacity and capability, especially in conveying our ESG programs to stakeholders. #ESG #Sustainability #AHEMCE #AHEMCECOMMFEST2024

What impact has CDR beyond carbon? 🤔 I had the pleasure to join an incredible interesting round to discuss this in a webinar. After an intro by Ben Rubin we hit the discussion with Octavia Carbon (DACCS), Drax Group (BECCS), Mati Carbon (ERW) and Novocarbo (BCR), thus covering all major #CDR methods. So what are benefits beyond carbon? Across the CDR portfolio companies we came up with: 📈Strengthening national economies  🏗 Building energy infrastructure  ⚡ Green energy 💡 Cleantech innovation  🆕 Creating new jobs  👩🎓Opportunities for existing trained workforce  💚 Biodiversity 🔄 Circularity  🥗 Regenerative  foodsystems 🚰 Water protection 🌏 Sustainable fossil carbon substitues Impressive list, right? And worth talking way more about than we do. Thank you WBCSD – World Business Council for Sustainable Development for bringing us together and thanks to Neal Gray-Wannell and Alba Rodriguez Ruiz for being wonderful hosts. Thanks so much for having me. The webinar is one of a series on the topic "Beyond Value Chain Action".

A common approach to Digital Product Passports is critical to maximising the effectiveness of this tool in promoting #sustainability, #transparency, and regulatory compliance across industries and regions. It ensures that all stakeholders can efficiently and consistently interact with product data, advancing #circular #economy efforts on a global scale. With these events, ICCS - NTUA aims to trace scientific initiatives and researchers involved in #DPP and provide a platform that promotes cooperation and ideas exchange, strategies and novelties that can lead the transition for sector specific towards a common approach on DPPs. A great initiative by our Division of Circular Economy & Tracing (CET)
