Understanding Climate Risk Reporting

Sustainability reporting is about business—not politics

In this episode, ISSA Media Director Jeff Cross welcomes back sustainability expert Steve Ashkin, founder of The Ashkin Group, to unpack the evolving world of climate risk reporting and sustainability in the cleaning industry.

Ashkin discusses why sustainability reporting is about business—not politics. He digs into how transparency helps companies make smarter decisions (think: Carfax for your operations).

In addition, Ashkin emphasizes that this shift is not about ideology—it’s about good business. Whether you’re a facility manager, distributor, or service provider, understanding and managing climate risks can directly impact your ability to compete, grow, and serve your customers.
