Carbon Markets & Climate Policy6 اگست، 2026CBAM in 2026: What GCC Steel and Aluminium Exporters Actually Owe
The EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) entered its definitive regime on 1 January 2026, but a GCC steel or aluminium exporter owes very little in certificate cash for 2026, and nothing is payable until 30 September 2027. What is owed now is verified emissions data. The cost curve looks gentle this year and steepens […]
Emissions Reporting30 جولائی، 2026Healthcare Emissions in the GCC: Anaesthetic Gases, Single-Use, and Pharma Scope 3
Healthcare produces roughly 4.4% of global greenhouse gas emissions, and most of it is indirect. In the GCC, three upstream sources carry a disproportionate share and are routinely left out of measurement: anaesthetic gases vented from operating theatres (Scope 1), single-use devices whose emissions are embedded at manufacture (Scope 3), and imported pharmaceuticals produced outside […]

On 11 June 2026, the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) published Version 2.0 of its Corporate Net-Zero Standard, the framework most large companies use to set credible climate targets.

Emissions Reporting16 جولائی، 2026The Construction Emissions Disclosure Gap: Why Scope 3 Category 1 Feels Impossible for GCC Builders
Scope 3 Category 1, the cradle-to-gate emissions of purchased goods and services such as concrete, steel, and aluminium, accounts for the large majority of a construction company’s carbon footprint and is the most difficult category to report. In the GCC, the gap is wider because the library of verified Environmental Product Declarations is limited and […]

Sustainability23 جون، 2026Waste-to-Energy in Gulf Cities: Climate Solution or Incineration Greenwashing?
Burning rubbish to make electricity sounds like a magic trick. Waste disappears, the grid gets power, and a landfill the size of a neighbourhood never gets built. Dubai now runs a plant that does exactly this at a scale no other single site in the world matches. Sharjah got there first. Saudi Arabia plans gigawatts […]

The Trust Stack: Why ESG Software Has to Earn Three Kinds of Trust Most software asks you to trust it with your data. ESG software asks for something harder. It asks you to trust the numbers it gives back, then sign them, then hand them to a regulator, a lender, or an auditor with your […]
Carbon Markets & Climate Policy8 جون، 2026Stranded Assets in GCC Real Estate: When Climate Risk Becomes Uninsurable
A stranded asset is a building that loses economic value well before the end of its useful life because external conditions shift, whether through physical climate damage, rising insurance costs, or new regulation. In the GCC, all three pressures are converging: the Gulf is warming faster than the global average, the most valuable waterfront stock […]
