Title: Episode 74 – EU Taxonomy – The vehicle behind green finance? Featuring Asger Olsen, International Woodland Company, and Ondrej Tarabus, FSC International
Author(s): Worm, Loa Dalgaard
Description: In this episode of Forest for the Future, we explore a piece of legislation that has the potential to reshape how businesses approach sustainability: the EU Taxonomy. We sit down with Asger Olsen, Global Head of Climate Biodiversity and ESG at International Woodland Company, and Ondrej Tarabus, Senior Advisor for Verified Impact at FSC International, to break down the complexities of the EU Taxonomy and what it means for sustainable forestry and climate action.
Join us as we dive deep into how this legislation connects financial incentives to the green transition, and why it's essential for companies—both within and beyond the EU—to understand its requirements. We also discuss the broader implications of this legislation for biodiversity, eco-system services, and the role of FSC in driving sustainable practices globally.
Topics we cover include:
• What is the EU Taxonomy, and why should we care?
• How the EU Taxonomy integrates with other major legislations like the EUDR and CSRD.
• The global impact of the EU Taxonomy on companies, even outside of the EU.
• How FSC is aligning with the EU Taxonomy to stay relevant and promote sustainable forest management.
Listen in as we unpack the challenges and opportunities presented by this landmark legislation!
