ESG, road tested

We test and review sustainability courses & tools, and provide a practitioner's perspective on what works (and doesn't) for the people doing corporate ESG work.

I’m a sustainability professional with 15 years of experience across NGOs, consulting, and in-house roles. I built this site because I kept being asked the same questions: which course is worth doing, which tools are good, where to start.

AI & ESG

AI tools for ESG reporting are developing fast, but the gap between the hype and what actually works in practice is still large. Over the last few months I’ve been testing different AI tools and workflows for real sustainability reporting tasks to see what actually saves time and what doesn’t. This is a practitioner’s honest view of where AI really helps, where it falls short, and what’s worth your time.
