The Week in Sustainability

This week:
- Australia is proposing a law for companies to disclose climate-related financial risks and opportunities. It follows TCFD recommendations and initially targets entities like listed companies, banks, and insurers.
- The ISSB introduced global sustainability disclosure standards IFRS S1 and IFRS S2, which focus on general and climate-specific information to unify existing initiatives and promote global compatibility starting in January 2024.
