Sustainable, CSR reports
Today's lecture was about accounting CSR and sustaibability. The topic was so interesting because measurement of CSR is big problem for sustaibability.
Today, a guest came from an accounting firm. She was good at speaking English and talking. She was a kind of activist, but she knew about business or economics through her job and experience of study in a unversity. It was surprising for me, and big difference between most activists in Japan, I think. Howver, I could not comprehend fully what she spoke because of my lack of ability to hear.
The structure of the lecture was simple.
1.fact(problem/solution)
-global index(macro)
-example(micro)
2.CSR
-defenition
-position in society
3.CSR report
-why report is necessary
-law(government)
-report(private)
-index
What I was supprised at was Sweden has compursoly law for reporting CSR.
It is difficult in Japan.
And I leanrd two new things:
350(ppm): That is the level to which Hansen believes we need to reduce the concentration of carbon dioxide (and by implication, other greenhouse gases) in the atmosphere if we want to avoid a series of catastrophic climate tipping points.
ANIARA:The poem of a famous Swedish writer , Harry Martinson, who was a Nobel prize writer in 1972. This is about space travel and its human struggle. the story is really interesting.
I will read someday, and also read CSR report in this week!
