The challenge of sustainability : linking politics, education and learning
This timely and accessible book explores the links between politics, learning and sustainability. Its central focus is the future of people and the planet itself. The challenges that we face in combatting climate change and building a more sustainable world are complex and the book argues that if we are to successfully meet these challenges we need a fundamental change in the way we do politics and economics, embedding a lifelong commitment to sustainability in all learning. The book will be important reading for academics and students in a variety of related subjects, including politics, public policy,education, sustainable development, and development studies.
The price is wrong : why capitalism won't save the planet
\"What if our understanding of capitalism and climate is back to front? What if the problem is not that transitioning to renewables is too expensive, but that saving the planet is not sufficiently profitable? This is Brett Christophers' claim. The global economy is moving too slowly toward sustainability because the return on green investment is too low\"-- Provided by publisher.

Article: ‘Not Everything that Counts Can Be Counted’: The Flaws of the EU Rules on ESG Information
The EU has introduced various ESG information obligations for large companies and financial intermediaries, hoping to indirectly promote virtuous behaviour. The legislation is spread across a multiplicity of regulatory sources and concerns heterogeneous matters: investor protection and consumer preferences (the SFDR, Delegated Regulation under MIFID II, Listing Act, and Green Claims Directive), disclosure obligations (the NFRD and subsequently Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD)), and company duties (the Taxonomy Regulation and, more recently, Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD)). However, transparency in ESG policies is much more difficult to achieve than in financial information, given the descriptive nature of sustainability information and the lack of standards and well-established operating practices. Comparing the main provisions of European legislation regulating corporate sustainability information, whether mandatory or not, this study aims to show how these provisions are gradually becoming closer to the financial information regime. Despite this, enforcement is weak, because the latter regime is heavily dependent on the choices of individual Member States, which are left to define the system of remedies and sanctions. Perhaps this approach is a compromise, given the differences between the sustainability policies of various national governments, but its transnational nature means that this phenomenon will require a higher level of harmonization.
