🔵ESG, Scope 3 & Regulations – The Hidden Side of Strategic Decisions

ESG is not just a box to check in regulatory obligations. Behind the debates on Scope 3 emissions reporting and the CSRD directive, one truth stands out: human dynamics dictate a company’s ability to adapt and perform.
📌 Why do companies continue investing in Scope 3 despite uncertainties?
✅ Risk management – A transparent supply chain helps anticipate crises.
✅ Investor expectations – ESG reporting is becoming a key competitiveness marker.
✅ Regulatory impact – The EU is enforcing new standards, but political tensions blur the lines.
⚖️ CSRD: Between Responsibility and Economic Pressure
The European CSRD directive is under scrutiny due to pressure from economic and political groups. Should obligations be eased, or should transparency be reinforced?
👉 This is not just a technical legal battle—it reflects a clash of perceptions between long-term sustainability and short-term constraints.
