The latest trends and initiatives in ESG and Sustainability
Our Perspective
Pacific Northwest (PNW) Climate Week is a week-long series of events throughout Seattle, Portland,
and Vancouver that set the stage for meaningful conversations on climate action. Bringing together
leaders, innovators, and advocates dedicated to addressing pressing environmental challenges, the
event is a community-powered initiative that serves as a hub for collaborations and driving actionable
solutions to address climate challenges.
Industry Updates
To reach net-zero emissions, the steel industry will have to cut emissions 90 percent by 2050. E-commerce powerhouse Amazon and building technology company Johnson Controls are the latest to join a corporate coalition pledging to procure at least 1 million tons of “near-zero emissions steel” annually by 2028.
The Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) rolled out new rules for U.S. offshore drillers, as breakthrough technology enables them to operate under extreme subsea pressures and unlock billions in untapped oil reserves. The technology could unlock 5 billion barrels of previously inaccessible crude globally.
The 2024 UNEP Emissions Gap Report exposes the discrepancy between climate commitments and tangible progress. With an increase in greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) in 2023 and a gap between current trajectories and climate targets, the report underscores the need for action to avoid climate consequences.
Industry Spotlight
Most businesses want to improve sustainability performance, and for many, reaching that goal is challenging due to the lack of resources or subject matter expertise. This fabless semiconductor company is no exception. They realized that in order to effectively, efficiently, and economically meet regulations and expectations set by customers, they needed to develop and implement a sustainable management program (SMP).
