PRESS
How the session was reported.
Only verified articles are listed. Pieces that quote Seo Uk are marked separately from general event coverage.
For a company to have local climate action recognised as ESG performance, three things are needed: evidence of the activity, an explanation of its value, and a classification standard. If you ask farmers and residents to carry out research-grade surveys, participation stops. We need MRV the field can actually manage.
