Where to start
If you have never produced a sustainability disclosure, read them in order. Carbon accounting for Nigerian companies explains what is being measured and why the arithmetic differs here. Scope 1, 2 and 3 explained takes the classification apart properly, because nearly every downstream error traces back to a misclassification.
If you already know the measurement and need the requirement, start with the complete guide to FRC sustainability reporting, then the ESG report checklist to see what you need to have in hand.
If your first mandatory year is close and you have not started, go straight to preparing for the 2028 deadline. It is a month-by-month plan working backwards from the filing date, and it is deliberately blunt about what is and is not recoverable.
