Companies everywhere are voluntarily stepping up to report on their #sustainability efforts. According to a recent progress report by a leading standards provider, 82% of businesses now disclose climate-related data. This trend isn't just among the big players, 50% of the Russell 2000 companies now report some form of ESG data. As stakeholder pressure grows, we expect these numbers to keep rising. No matter where global regulations land, the direction is clear: Companies are choosing to share more sustainability data—and they're asking their suppliers to do the same.
