EMICERT, a leading company in the CO₂ verification market, took part in the 9th Delphi Economic Forum, with Managing Partner Kostas Antoniadis participating in the panel discussion titled “Building Trust in Green: Commitments and Results.”
The panel was held on April 11th, moderated by Thanos Belalidis, and included senior market executives with expertise in green development and regulatory compliance. The discussion focused on the current state and future of sustainability, greenwashing practices, and success stories that can support a smooth green transition.
Mr. Antoniadis addressed the issue of greenwashing and its consequences, emphasizing the lack of a clear, common understanding of what it truly means to be environmentally friendly. He highlighted the growing importance of third-party verification services as a key solution to challenges related to environmental accountability.
He also brought attention to the decline of biomass in forests and the need for sustainable forest management as a response to climate change and destructive wildfires. Furthermore, he emphasized the importance of transparency and accountability in building a responsible and future-proof economy.
As he noted:
“Progress can only come through coordinated effort and solidarity. We must work together internationally to address the environmental challenges that concern us all.”
He added:
“When companies adopt third-party verification, they demonstrate their commitment to openness and responsibility. This not only enhances their reputation but also builds trust among consumers, partners, and stakeholders.”
Once again, EMICERT’s presence at this major economic forum reaffirmed its role as a market leader in CO₂ emissions verification—a partner not limited to offering high-quality certification services, but also actively involved in raising awareness and promoting dialogue on critical issues shaping the future of our planet.
