This is the reference library behind our advisory work, a running, free collection of terms, frameworks, regulations and tools built for the people who have to act on climate risk without a climate science background. No sign-up. No paywall. Sourced, dated, and corrected when it's wrong.
Everything here answers one question a real person asked us on a call, a workshop, or a proposal. We build it once, in public, so the next person doesn't have to ask.
Plain-English definitions for every term you'll hit in a sustainability report, a CSR meeting, or a climate risk conversation, no jargon left unexplained.
BRSR, GRI, TCFD, ESRS, SDGs and India-specific rules, decoded and compared, what each one actually requires, and who has to file it.
What climate risk means for your specific seat, CSR head, sustainability lead, HR/duty-of-care owner, or CFO signing off the budget.
Trackers, checklists and self-assessments you can download and use today. No email gate. Built from the same rigour we use with paying clients.
Structured "should we / how do we" answers to the calls that come up most: budgeting a CSR programme, choosing a reporting framework, briefing a board on climate exposure.
Pharma, FMCG, manufacturing, IT, financial services, cement and metals, telecom, retail, what climate-health exposure looks like in each, and where CSR budgets already point.
The evidence base connecting climate change to health outcomes, heat, air quality, food security, access disruption, with sources you can cite in your own reporting.
Filing windows, notification updates, and state-level heat action plans, the calendar version of the moving budgets we build our whole approach around.
Reports, courses and external tools worth your time, with a one-line verdict on each rather than a link dump.
The scoring methods and diagnostic frameworks we use with clients stay ours. The context underneath them doesn't need to. If a plain definition of BRSR assurance requirements helps you make a better decision this week, that's a good use of an afternoon, whether or not you ever become a client.
Climate change didn't wait for a budget line to open. Neither should the information.
What "reasonable" vs "limited" assurance actually means for your Section 135 filing.
A working spreadsheet structure for scoring which climate risks matter most to your operations.
Where climate-health fits inside a Section 135 budget, and how to defend the line item.
That's usually the most useful signal we get. Tell us what you were trying to find.
