CSO Insights: The big blind spot software giant SAP sees in AI strategies
In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we explore the risks and opportunities AI presents for companies in an interview with Sophia Mendelsohn. Sophia is Chief Sustainability and Commercial Officer at SAP, one of the world's largest producers of software. She outlines how companies are leveraging AI to become more sustainable. She also explains why many executives have "a blind spot" in their AI strategy when it comes to sustainability. "They're racing to scale the technology, and we're treating sustainability sort of as last year's hype cycle ... instead of a condition for AI growth," Sophia says. "AI's first wave of expansion was fueled by our awe of the technology, but our second wave of the expansion has to be powered and protected by our ability to reconcile AI with the physical world we're using it in." This episode is the latest installment in our CSO Insights podcast series, where we interview Chief Sustainability Officers around the world and across industries.

Inside Mexico's sustainability standards for public and private companies
In this week's episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're exploring how Mexico is adopting and building on standards issued by the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). Mexico is one of more than 40 jurisdictions that have adopted or are in the process of adopting the ISSB's disclosure standards. To learn about Mexico's approach, we speak with Patricia Moles, a member of the Standards Issuing Committee of the Mexican Financial and Sustainability Reporting Standards Board, known as CINIF. Patricia explains how Mexico has tailored its standards to local conditions, with a focus on material topics such as waste management, nature loss, and physical climate risks like water stress.

How private capital is advancing the next wave of sustainable and climate tech
In today's episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're exploring the landscape for private investment into sustainability and climate solutions. We talk with Christina Leijonhufvud, CEO and Co-Founder of BlueMark, a company that tracks trends in the sustainable and impact investing market. Christina describes an increasing focus on climate solutions and climate tech investing in the market. She says that while investing in climate risk adaptation and resilience has increased, there is still greater need for private capital. "It's an underfunded part of the market, which means there is a ton of opportunity," Christina says. S&P Global is an outside investor in BlueMark. We also talk with Matthew Nordan, Co-Founder and General Partner at Azolla Ventures, a venture c<span class= "Norma

What planetary health means for the private sector
The inaugural Climate Week Zurich in May opened with a stark assessment of the health of the planet: Internationally recognized scientist Johan Rockström told the audience that the Earth has transgressed seven of nine Planetary Boundaries, pushing the planet toward the possibility of large scale and irreversible changes. Johan is Director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research and helped develop the Planetary Boundaries, a framework that assesses nine critical global processes that regulate the stability and resilience of the Earth. In today's episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, Johan talks about the planet's health, the impacts of a warming world, and what this means for the business community. "Beyond 1.5 [degrees C], science shows we may cause irreversible damage to the Earth's system," Johan says. "It's not a sustainability issue — it's about security, it's about health, it's about stability." Johan also highlights the opportunity to take action and reverse course. "The window is still open to turn this around," he says. He points to encouraging conversations happening between business, finance and science communities at events like Climate Week Zurich and London Climate Action Week, which wraps up June 28. <span class= "EOP Selected SCXW24356

CSO Insights: How sustainability at big bank UBS evolved after mega-merger
Three years ago, one of the world's largest banks, Switzerland-based UBS, completed the acquisition of another major global bank, Credit Suisse. In today's episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're talking to UBS Chief Sustainability Officer and Group Historian Christian Leitz. He tells us how the combined bank is embedding sustainability into its operations, culture and strategy. Christian also explains how he brings his background as a historian to the CSO role — ensuring that clients, shareholders and employees understand the long-term context for current geopolitical volatility. "I don't want to distract from the fact that there is this noise, but I also want to do a bit of a reality check," Christian says. "There are enormously positive movements that we've seen" when it comes to the transition to a low-carbon economy. Christian also shares his takeaways from the inaugural Climate Week Zurich in May 2026, and what to expect at London Climate Action Week, which kicks off June 20 and includes<span class="NormalTextRun SCXW127924070 BCX

Ahead of London Climate Action Week, we're exploring how the UK is adopting International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) standards.

Sustainability-related reporting is well established in the UK, and in today's episode we speak to Sally Duckworth, Chair of the UK Sustainability Disclosure Technical Advisory Committee (TAC).
