Making taxonomies easy to apply, consistent, open to innovation and comprehensive at the same time is imperative if the world\u2019s economies are to achieve net zero, even when this dilutes technical precision in the process. In their paper, the authors argue in favour of expanding classification systems to include information on transition and potential transition activities, and present a scorecard approach to meet that very objective.<\/p><p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To read the entire paper, please follow <a href=\"https:\/\/ssrn.com\/abstract=4488521\">https:\/\/ssrn.com\/abstract=4488521<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.2139\/ssrn.4488521\">https:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.2139\/ssrn.4488521<\/a>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cAddressing the \u2018Winner-Takes-All\u2019 Character of Sustainability Taxonomies\u201d by Dirk A.
