As awareness of environmental issues and social justice grows, businesses are increasingly scrutinized not only for their financial performance but also for their social and environmental impacts. Amid this shift, a new breed of company has emerged: Certified B Corporations, or B Corps.

Climate change, pollution, deforestation, and the loss of biodiversity challenge the very foundations of human existence and the natural world.

The urgency to address climate change has catalyzed a wave of commitments from corporations worldwide to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions. As more companies announce their ambitious climate targets, it becomes crucial to scrutinize the credibility of these pledges.
