Cleavages in Sdgs and The Reconciling Role of Esg

Abstract

Human beings, their economic and social behavior is contributing immensely while they make their random choices for existence and thus far forcing a lot of carbon or equalists behind and it disturb the ecological balance. Building the premises of SDGs seems to have high implications on sustainable practices of countries in particular and the hemisphere in general. The present paper brings in the apprehensions of United Nations SDGs Agenda and how the corporate world is answering to it. On the other far end business community, despite the economic priorities of commercial ecosystem legitimate business entities make conscious efforts to reiterate their green-commitments on sustainability through Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) framework. Apparently the two aspects converge in to same plane with robust care for planet and life on it. Countries and corporates at general and citizens in particular as buyers and investors share the stakeholder ship precisely in attaining the goals.The interrelationship of UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Environmental, social and Governance (ESG) is addressed in this paper pragmatically. There are cleavages in SDGs caused by the huge government sponsored anti-sustainable militia driven actions. ESG framework reconcile the business/commercial sustainability quotient by reducing the corporate carbon footprint. It may be futile, if we go without scaling the extent of damage that each stake holder is causing to the planet to discuss the actions. Different sectors exhibit a unique pattern of pay offs including the planet on their vision.
