Deloitte 2022 CxO Sustainability Report: Summary

Key Findings

1. Increased Awareness & Optimism

   • 79% of C-suite executives see the world at a climate change tipping point (up from 59% in 2021).
   • 88% believe immediate action can limit the worst impacts of climate change (up from 63% in 2021).

2. Corporate Climate Impacts & Stakeholder Pressure

   • 97% of companies have felt negative impacts from climate change, including operational disruptions (China, US, UK, etc.) and regulatory uncertainty (Netherlands, Germany, etc.).
   • 77% feel pressure from stakeholders (regulators, investors, employees) to act.

3. Ambition vs. Action Gap

   • Only 19% of surveyed CxOs’ organizations have implemented at least four key “needle-moving” sustainability actions.
   • Most companies focus on low-impact actions (e.g., using sustainable materials or reducing air travel) rather than transformative measures (e.g., developing climate-friendly products or tying executive compensation to sustainability).

4. Benefits & Obstacles

   • Climate leaders report greater enthusiasm for sustainability, viewing it as a driver of growth and stakeholder satisfaction.
   • Major obstacles include difficulty measuring environmental impact, short-term costs, and pressure from investors prioritizing immediate business goals.

Recommendations

• Set Bold Goals: Use frameworks to define credible targets (e.g., Science Based Targets initiative).
• Influence Broader Ecosystems: Collaborate with suppliers, governments, and NGOs to address climate change systemically.
• Educate Leaders: Ensure boards and executives understand climate risks and opportunities.
• Embed Sustainability: Integrate climate considerations into all business operations and decision-making.

Note: The 2022 report highlights a pressing need for C-suite leadership to bridge ambition and action in sustainability.
