.JPG "KPI for Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI)")
Introduction Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI)
The Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI) evaluate the sustainability performance of companies based on various environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria.
While the specific KPIs used in the DJSI assessment are proprietary and may change over time, here are some common areas and indicators that are typically considered:
KPI Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI)
1. Climate Change:
– Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions: KPIs can include total emissions, emissions intensity, and reduction targets.
– Renewable energy: KPIs may assess the use of renewable energy sources and investments in renewable energy projects.
– Climate strategy: KPIs can evaluate the company’s climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies, such as setting science-based targets.
2. Environmental Management:
– Resource efficiency: KPIs may measure energy and water consumption, waste generation, and recycling rates.
– Environmental impact: KPIs can assess the company’s impact on biodiversity, land use, air and water pollution, and waste management practices.
– Environmental certifications: KPIs may consider certifications like ISO 14001 (Environmental Management System) or LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design).
3. Social Responsibility:
– Labor practices: KPIs can assess labor standards, employee health and safety, diversity and inclusion, and human rights policies.
– Supply chain management: KPIs may evaluate supplier assessment, responsible sourcing, and supplier diversity.
– Social impact: KPIs can measure community engagement, philanthropy, and social investment initiatives.
4. Governance and Ethics:
– Corporate governance: KPIs may assess board structure, independence, and diversity, as well as executive compensation practices.
– Ethics and compliance: KPIs can evaluate ethics policies, anti-corruption measures, and legal and regulatory compliance.
– Risk management: KPIs may consider the company’s risk assessment and management practices related to ESG issues.
It’s important to note that the specific KPIs and weightings used in the DJSI assessment are determined by the methodology of the index, which may change over time.
Companies are evaluated on their performance relative to their industry peers, and those with the highest scores are included in the DJSI.

Seminal astrophysicist Carl Sagan explains why uncomfortable ideas may be banned in religion, they must not be shunned in science.
This is an important concept in American life today, as conspiracy theorists are convinced that climate change denial cannot be considered in scientific circles.
I happened to bring this up in my interview with Dr. V. Ramanathan of the Scripps Institution, who has been amassing data on global warming since the 1970s. He laughed, and explained, “If I could prove that human activity was not causing temperatures to rise, I’d be be one of the wealthiest and most famous scientists in world history.”
As suggested at left, a great deal of the hardship that has befallen the U.S. was simply bad luck. Al Gore came within a whisker of victory in 2000, a win that would have forever changed the course of our nation in terms of energy policy, education, healthcare, and international affairs.
If Bernie had become the 2016 nominee, we wouldn’t have had Hillary Clinton telling our country’s most mean-spirited and least-educated people that they were “deplorables,” ushering a criminal sociopath into the White House.
We Came Incredible Close to Averting the Disaster that Is Donald Trump
Social democracies are nations in which the tax base provides everyone with healthcare and education, and where the richest and most powerful people are not free to ruin the environment.
I run into someone from one of these counties a couple of times a month, and I like to ask why their people are consistently at the top of the World Happiness Rankings. The normal response is always some variant of the following:
It’s hard to be happy living in a society that is indifferent to the suffering of others. It’s part of the very nature of human beings to care about one another.
Something else I notice about these places is that very few people are religious. Sweden, e.g., is about 80% atheist.
That means no childish tribalism, no ridiculous dogmas, no worries about eternal damnation, etc.
