Waves of new and rapidly changing ESG (environmental, social and governance) requirements and standards have forced companies to reevaluate the role of ESG and its impact on how companies organize, manage and report on their operations. With this space buffeted by changing state, national, and international priorities, the question remains: what is ESG and why should my business care?  

This webinar will provide an overview of key ESG, sustainability, and social responsibility issues and explain their relevance to your legal practice.

  • Sustainability and climate reporting
  • Green claims
  • Supply chain/forced labor due diligence
