ESG (environment, social and governance) investing has been making headlines lately, having become both a target for anti-woke initiatives and a topic of discussion in sustainability circles.

Social impact communicator Michael Maslansky and his firm recently concluded an extensive research study on ESG and its future. Join the Impact Relations Institute, in partnership with 3BL Media, for our next Impact Council on [**Wednesday, October 4 at 12pm ET / 9am PT**](https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/is-there-a-future-for-esg-tickets-714090723577?aff=oddtdtcreator&lang=en-ca&locale=en_CA&status=30&view=listing) to discuss the findings and explore:

- Why some insist the language of ESG is divisive
- The factors that impact investors’ attitudes toward ESG
- Whether ESG delves deep enough into the negative impacts of its investments, and why many progressives opt for B Corps, Public Good companies or Benefit Corps instead
