An interesting Sunday read... The article from World Resources Institute focuses on four pivotal issues for 2023, particularly emphasizing the energy crisis in Europe and its implications on the global transition to clean energy, alongside tropical forests' conservation, water scarcity, and the state of climate policy. These issues play a significant role in steering the world towards a sustainable trajectory. Aligning with this, Open Food Chain propels the food industry towards sustainability.

Businesses can make the greatest contribution to solving the climate crisis by reducing emissions from their value chains. What they need now is a suite of flexible - and scientifically rigorous - approaches to get there.   WWF's Director General Kirsten Schuijt explains in Context Newsroom: "The debate on Scope 3 targets doesn’t boil down to “for or against” carbon credits, as some would have you believe. Most companies are just looking for simpler processes, easier target-setting methods, and frameworks that enable them to focus on the highest impact emissions categories and invest in solutions - something Science Based Targets initiative and the GHG Protocol should help support."
