"Cost-Benefit Analysis for a Greener Tomorrow"

I'm proud to share AltaGas' 2024 Sustainability Report, which was released earlier this week. The report reaffirms our commitment to sustainability and our responsibility to deliver the energy our customers rely on--today and into the future. Our balanced approach focuses on supporting customers and communities, strengthening partnerships, mitigating environmental impacts and advancing climate initiatives to help shape a more sustainable energy future.

Motion toward sustainability comes from tension between the current situation and the desired future. My video on ABCD methodology explains this in details: https://lnkd.in/e-kGTie (part of the Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development)

One of the biggest differences between ESG reporting and strategic planning for sustainability isn't what ESG framework you follow....it's more about having the courage to envision what your company can create for itself when the time is taken to envision how it might exist, contribute and THRIVE in a sustainable society. This process causes a "creative tension" between your current reality and the vision you're now pulling towards; requiring courage to sit in the tension as you begin to execute your strategic sustainability plans. Check out Alexandre Magnin's excellent intro video. Do you need support moving from complexity to clarity? This method translates sustainability from abstract goals (ESG check lists, SDGs, Net Zero, Circular Economy) into concrete, stepwise actions that drive business value.

A helpful breakdown of California Air Resources Board's #CaliforniaClimateRules #SB253 and #SB261. 🚅 SB 261 remains alive and well with climate risk reports expected due on January 1, 2026. 📣 SB 253 (assured Scope 1 and 2 emissions) are still due in mid-2026. Anyone who does business in California will fall under this regulation. While the final definition is being firmed up it generally refers to anyone "doing business in California". Best practices remain to align with leading global reporting standards and frameworks like TCFD, IFRS S2, and the GHG Protocol.

To determine whether companies should be considered as ‘doing business’ in California, CARB will include any company that meets one of these criteria: It is legally based or headquartered in California. Its sales in California are above $735,019 (the 2024 threshold, adjusted for inflation each year), which includes sales through agents or contractors. There will likely be some exemptions, including non-profits, government agencies, and companies whose only footprint in California is remote workers. If a parent company and its subsidiaries together exceed $500M per year in revenue and meet the test of “business in California,” the parent company can file one report covering all entities. Subsidiaries only need to file separately if they individually exceed the threshold and the parent does not consolidate reporting. CARB is encouraging one report per corporate family to avoid duplicate filings.

If your business operates in California (with revenue > $735K), you'll need to comply with sustainability reporting in FY26. Some useful details included below.

Our 2024 Annual Sustainability Report has just launched. This year, we share both the ups and downs on our journey towards making sustainable logistics easily accessible. Inside, you’ll find highlights on the world’s first hydrogen-powered ships, our progress in meeting upcoming ESG regulations and certifications, and Samskip's role in shaping the future of logistics. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this year’s report!
