Certifying agencies continue to consolidate and as such certifications need to be refreshed as certifying agencies cease to exist or become integrated with the combined agency. I'm very interested in maintaining existing certifications as well as gaining additional certifications, but I do believe that their value will continue to be diluted until a point in time that the USA asserts an ESG framework that's endorsed & guided by FASB and one that aligns GAAP and IFRS.
