ESG investing is quickly gaining popularity as a priority among investors.

The energy industry has become a particular target of this movement, and, as such, it now influences critical managerial and strategic decisions. This ESG Energy and Climate course will cover the development and future of ESG standards, assessing the impact of ESG as a gauge for environmental sustainability and how ESG and climate concerns are shifting the priorities of the energy industry.
