This paper presents an AI framework integrating LayoutLMv3, ClimateBERT, and XGBoost to tackle ESG reporting fragmentation and greenwashing. Evaluated on 139 corporate reports, it achieves 95% CO2 extraction precision, 20% completeness impr…

Villanova, Marcio

This paper addresses the supplier evidence gap for Brazilian companies under EU regulations (CSDDD, CBAM, EUDR). It argues that market access does not guarantee compliance and introduces a framework for building defensible evidence on origi…
