Speaking Sustainability: A Cost-Based Approach to Managing Sustainability Issues and Greenwashing Risks
In the latest episode of our OnAir with Akin podcast, we continue our Speaking Sustainability series hosted by Chad Smith, a consultant in the New York office specializing in sustainability. Chad is joined by guests Jim Deeken, an investment management partner in the Dallas office, and Kirk Anderson, an investment management counsel in the New York office.
The trio explores the challenges of implementing sustainability principles in the corporate world, highlights the importance of aligning sustainability statements with actual practices to avoid legal issues and regulatory scrutiny and the risks involved with false sustainability claims.
