Message from the Guest Editors
Dear Colleagues,
The principles of a sustainable development include the design of human systems, taking into account ecological and social limits of carrying capacity and scientific principles. Environmental performance is important for guiding sustainable consumption and sustainable production and value chains. Focusing on environmental performance in a qualitative and/or quantitative way organizations and companies raise awareness to
environmental or sustainable issues to foster change toward sustainability.
Thus, effective risk assessment and analysis of sustainability risks are necessary as well and should be part of sustainability reporting. While SGDs are increasingly integrated into sustainability reporting, sustainability risks report rarely find integration. Thus, it is of pivotal interest to identify how risk disclosure takes place in sustainability reporting.
This Special Issue invites various scholars to explore research from different perspectives offering new insights into creative approaches and systemic thinking as well as innovative processes for dealing with the sustainability impact, risk disclosure, and environmental performance in sustainability reports.
