“…The rise of voluntary CSR reporting and the discourses disseminated in the reports have received considerable research interests in business, accounting, and management as well as language and communication studies. Particular attention has been paid to discourses around environmental sustainability (Ihlen & Roper, 2014; Laine, 2010; Lischinsky, 2015; Livesey, 2002b; Livesey & Kearins, 2002; Milne, Kearins, & Walton, 2006) showing how companies strategically utilize the categories of “environment” and “sustainability” to create a positive image of themselves, increase legitimacy, and competitive advantage. Yet with some exceptions (e.g., Ihlen, 2009; Jaworska & Nanda, 2016; Livesey, 2002a; Pollach, 2016) little is known about the extent to which corporations attend specifically to climate change in their CSR reporting and how climate change is rhetorically and discursively built into the discourses of environmental sustainability.…”
