Chapter Chapter 8 in Demystifying Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG), 2023, pp 267-282 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In this chapter, we first summarize the seven earlier ones of this book. Then we make very important additions to the contents at the institutional/organizational and individual levels in Africa, whilst incorporating global implications too. Further contributions are made to the topic of ESG through discussions of the role of governments, Africa’s ESG priorities, avoidance of copy and paste, decoupling, stakeholder engagement, mutual benefit, greenwashing, corporate governance, carbon capitalism, technology, and the common guilt. It is argued that the responsibility for a better world, particularly through better environmental management, is everyone’s because the guilt is everyone’s.
