ESG Backlash Won't Stop Change Momentum

There has been a noticeable backlash against ESG considerations in corporate America, driven by the climate of political polarisation. How prevalent is anti-ESG sentiment beyond the US and how might this impact the sustainability push in business? Long-time sustainability advocate Tim Mohin discusses the evolving notions of corporate responsibility and how the debate over ESG could play out amid updated standards of reporting.
