Corporations on Climate: Greenwashing or Progress? in Toronto on 16 October 2024
Wednesday, October 16, 2024, 1900 - 2100
Panelists: Melissa Aronczyk (Rutgers University), Ralph Torrie (Corporate Knights), and John Woodside (National Observer)
Moderator: Alison Mountz

As corporations rush to align with environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria, questions around authenticity and greenwashing loom large. Are these initiatives sincere, or are they mere marketing ploys? Join this critical conversation as our panel of experts delves into the heart of corporate climate strategies.

From carbon offset controversies to the broader implications of "clean capitalism," we’ll explore the tension between profit-driven interests and true sustainability.

This event is free and open to the public.

Hosted by the Institute for Environment, Conservation and Sustainability (IECS), University of Toronto Scarborough, in partnership with Canada's National Observer, Harbinger Media, Cited Media, and Another Story Bookshop.
