This training course is entitled Sustainability and Climate Reporting, the ultimate guide. I have called it that because I have spent a few hundred hours of my time researching the area of reporting and decided to include all the relevant topics that a person who is new to this area would expect. I tried to avoid covering too much technical knowledge to make this training course digestible for everyone in all the different activities in the world of government, non-government and corporate organisations that need to report on how they are tackling sustainability and climate issues.There are three parts to this training course:Part 1 is entitled building blocks. This is where I cover the individual components of sustainability and reporting since environmental reporting started after the Exxon Valdez oil spill in 1989.Part 2 covers the developments in reporting since 2017 when the Task Force on Climate-related financial disclosures published its report and recommendations. I then move on to cover more recent events when in June 2023 the International Financial Reporting Standards Foundation’s International Sustainability Standards Board published IFRS S1 on sustainability-related financial disclosures and S2 on climate-related financial disclosures. At the same time, the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board, in addition to its existing 77 standards on sustainability-related financial disclosures also published its industry guidance document for IFRS S2, and also become part of the International Sustainability Standards Board under the IFRS Foundation family. I will also cover the recent Task Force on Nature-related financial disclosures.Part 3 is entitled Sustainability and climate-related reporting 2024 to 2025. In this part I will cover the following three topics: 1) The European Union’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive or CSRD, 2) the Task Force for Climate-related disclosures final report and 3) a look to the future and what it might hold on this important

In this class we discuss carbon sequestration as a means to mitigate climate change. The method promoted is carbon mineralization. This course was developed as part of mission of the non-profit Carbon Negative Water and Energy founded by Dr. John Hoaglund. If you have benefitted from the information, please consider making a donation. If you're part of the 98% and can't make a donation, please massively forward the website and this course to your network ... it makes a difference. More information is available at the foundation's website linked from Dr. Hoaglund's Udemy Instructor biography page.The two-part course is based on two presentations, divided topically into 14 videos. The first section features a Nevada Conservation League podcast, interviewing Dr. John Hoaglund. The climate change issue, other industrial sources of carbon and how to mitigate it with carbon sequestration is discussed. The second section is an expanded version of a presentation Dr. Hoaglund delivered to the National Groundwater Association (NGWA), and details the "CNWE environmental trifecta" (see below). Unlike the temporary biotic carbon sequestration used for "carbon offsets" (growing wetlands and forests in exchange for the "right to pollute", i.e. emit carbon), carbon mineralization is the Earth's permanent sink for carbon onto the seafloor. There is an energy penalty associated with all carbon sequestration methods, but by combining it with brine desalination with the processes described here, the energy invested also 1) produces freshwater, 2) produces commodities such as hydrogen gas, an energy carrier that will soon replace lithium, 3) eliminates brine disposal, 4) eliminates carbon emissions, and 5) reduces salination of groundwater by producing a bicarbonate de-icing salt to replace chloride salts.A technical description of the three components of the “CNWE environmental trifecta” is as follows:
