Adam Hearne is the CEO and co-founder of CarbonChain, which helps companies and banks decarbonise their supply chains through its software, which provides precise accounting of the global carbon emissions caused by industrial sectors. In this episode, we discuss specific, global ESG-related policies - including the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and the EU Omnibus Simplification Package - how CarbonChain tracks regulatory developments and whether Adam thinks companies still be motivated to manage their value chain emissions if carbon regulation becomes less stringent worldwide.
