CEOs shape climate risk narratives through strategic disclosure practices
Original framing: “Capable CEOs communicate climate risks more consistently” — Phys.org
Scientific studies show that corporate climate disclosures often lack standardized metrics and are subject to manipulation. Research on greenwashing and disclosure accuracy reveals that current frameworks are insufficient for meaningful climate action.
The framing of climate risk by CEOs is not a neutral act but a strategic exercise shaped by corporate interests and regulatory environments.
Indigenous knowledge, historical patterns, and cross-cultural perspectives reveal the limitations of this framing and highlight the need for more inclusive and systemic approaches. By integrating these diverse insights and strengthening accountability mechanisms, we can move toward a climate governance model that prioritizes ecological integrity and social equity. This requires not only regulatory reform but also a cultural shift in how we understand and respond to climate change.
