ABSTRACT

Environmental information disclosure, as a pivotal component of corporate social responsibility, has increasingly become a crucial aspect of the operational strategies of publicly listed companies. With the rising global emphasis on sustainable development, a growing number of enterprises recognize that environmental information disclosure transcends mere legal and ethical obligations; it is also a significant determinant of corporate value. The act of disclosing environmental information not only enhances corporate transparency and bolsters investor trust but also contributes to the improvement of a company's social reputation, mitigates operational and management risks, and ultimately exerts a positive influence on long-term corporate value. However, the escalating costs of disclosure and the regulatory risks associated with excessive transparency present challenges for businesses. Moreover, disparities in industry and company size lead to significant variations in the effectiveness of environmental information disclosure. To navigate these challenges, governments and corporations must collaborate, optimizing policies, enhancing corporate management capabilities, integrating third-party audits, and strengthening communication with stakeholders to comprehensively elevate the quality and transparency of environmental information disclosure, thereby fostering sustainable growth in corporate value.
