SUMMARY:2022 MIT Sustainability Conference
DESCRIPTION:Overview\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSustainability in the face of increasing climate change risk: What\, practically speaking\, does that mean for the corporate world?  For manufacturing\, chemical\, materials and process companies\, it means transforming to low-emissions methods and technologies – and exploiting the growth of renewable energy to power this transformation.  For other corporate enterprises it also means adaptation – leveraging computation and communications technologies for better forecasting\, resilience and risk mitigation.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDay 1 of this event will showcase bold\, innovative faculty\, impactful MIT research programs and disruptive startups all working to decarbonize industrial processes and improve resilience.  Building on this\, Day 2 will feature a morning of workshops to engage more deeply with several leading MIT centers who are dedicated to solving industrial sustainability challenges in water\, plastics\, aviation and setting GHG emissions targets. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by MIT\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMatt BirdMatt Bird is the Founder\, CEO\, and Editor-in-Chief of ESG News.

SUMMARY:ESG: Unlocking Impact Through Education #UNGA77
DESCRIPTION:A new approach to ESG and Corporate Social Responsibility\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event is open to ESG\, social impact\, corporate philanthropy and sustainability professionals. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvidence demonstrates strong correlations between education and diverse outcomes ranging from health\, climate\, economic growth and wages to equity\, diversity and inclusion. This event will explore how corporate actions\, small and large\, can make a quantifiable and direct impact across all aspects of environmental\, social and governance (ESG) priorities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCompanies traditionally committed to education as a social impact priority are finding it difficult to justify these efforts under new ESG frameworks linked to risk mitigation and sustainability. Similarly\, ESG professionals do not view acting on education as leverage point to advance ESG objectives.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe discussion will provide a framework for investment in education to mitigate risk\, improve corporate performance\, and enhance corporate perception. while making a more tangible impact on society. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by gbceducation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMatt BirdMatt Bird is the Founder\, CEO\, and Editor-in-Chief of ESG News.
