The pandemic has made people more concerned about sustainability than ever, and businesses are the focuses of their collective ire, with most saying they don’t take enterprise sustainability goals (ESGs) seriously. The solution, Oracle says, is to put AIs in charge. Oracle’s 2022 ESG Global Study surveyed some 11,000 consumers and businesses, and its findings reveal a population overwhelmingly frustrated with a lack of progress toward sustainability initiatives (94 percent). Seventy-eight percent also say that they’re frustrated with the lack of progress businesses have made on the ESG front. Consumers aren’t content to let businesses pat themselves on the back either: nearly half said that they believe businesses have more power than individuals or governments to affect change, and 89 percent said they need to see proof that progress is being made toward ESG goals.
