The ESG Standard

The ESG Standard

Every couple of years, there seems to emerge a new “hip” word, phrase, or acronym that companies and corporations promote internally and externally. We have seen terms like “going green,” “circular economy,” “social responsibility,” and “carbon neutral” used over and over again.

I have started seeing a new acronym being used a lot more lately, especially as it relates to investing, and that is ESG. What is ESG? It stands for Environmental Social Governance. Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria are a set of standards for a company’s operations that socially conscious investors use to screen potential investments. ESG criteria can also help investors avoid companies that might pose a greater financial risk due to their environmental or other practices.

Establishing a partnership with a certified Electronics Reuse and Recycling partner would go a long way to help companies improve their ESG standing. An R2 certified Electronics Reuse and Recycling partner, like Adams Cable Equipment, ensures that all end-of-life product is managed to ensure minimal impact on the environment (Environmental). R2 certified recycling partners also meet or exceed health and safety protocols (Social) and must follow all legal requirements (Governance) through the entire recycling process.

Provide Peace-of-Mind to your investors by using an R2 certified recycler to eliminate unnecessary risk!
