Abstract: Green bonds, as an innovative financial instrument designed to provide financing support for green projects and environmental protection activities, have received widespread attention globally in recent years. With the gradual increase in corporate emphasis on sustainable development, green bonds not only provide a low-cost financing channel for corporations, but also prompt corporations to make significant progress in environmental protection, social responsibility and corporate governance (ESG). By analyzing the definition and characteristics of green bonds, exploring their specific impact on corporate ESG performance, and proposing effective measures to promote the integration of the two, this paper provides new perspectives and paths for enterprises to achieve sustainable development. The study shows that green bonds not only help improve corporate environmental performance, but also optimize governance structure and enhance social responsibility, thus achieving comprehensive ESG improvement.
