With permission from Gowling WLG, we would like to share a link to their latest article, "Everything you need to know about the Taskforce on Nature-Related Financial Disclosures." It outlines what the #TNFD is, the reporting framework it provides and the key points businesses need to consider in applying this to their own organisation and situation. Particularly useful are the four phases of "locate, evaluate, assess and prepare" that can help one recognise, evaluate, manage and make disclosures in relation to nature-related issues.

We heard this #podcast by Reed Smith LLP and decided to share it with you for the insights shared in it. The evolving landscape of global ESG litigation and regulation "We think it is fair to say that people have been long aware of the risk of litigation in the ESG context, but we are starting to sense that the litigation landscape and indeed the regulatory landscape is changing in a number of jurisdictions, including in the UK and the US." Listen to the myriad of risk exposures these days and what is driving them. https://lnkd.in/eZ6Av36f #ESGLitigation #environmental

Job hopping is not seen in positive light within the legal profession. As this Harvard Business Review explains, the tendency to give job hoppers less consideration implies that their motivations are flawed: unfaithfulness, indecision, or poor judgement. Is it time to relook this assumption? "When we look closely at the motivators behind job hopping, there are several factors to consider — beyond disloyalty. Since the pandemic, work-life balance, mental health, flexibility, and competitive salaries are top-of mind for young workers." If you’re one of the many job hoppers struggling to explain the multiple roles you’ve held in the past, there are a few ways to approach this predicament. This article helps. https://lnkd.in/eNPqxXQw #legalrecruitment

What is the Berkeley Carbon Trading Project? A good resource in our opinion and worth knowing about. Research has found that most offset credits traded on the market today "represent far less than their claimed benefits. This failure squanders funds, good will, and precious time when real decarbonization could not be more urgent." The Project's interdisciplinary research and outreach program is focused on "ensuring that carbon trading and offsetting programs support rather than undermine effective climate action, and on supporting well-considered alternatives to offsetting and trading." https://lnkd.in/ev4pMuAC #carbontrading #carbonoffsets #climateaction University of California, Berkeley, Goldman School of Public Policy
