De Waal highlights why businesses must back their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) statements with verifiable, audit-ready data – not just glossy marketing campaigns. With global carbon tax regulations and activist scrutiny on the rise, he warns that greenwashing isn’t just a reputational risk, but a financial one.
