Tools in Focus: The Evolving Landscape of Social MetricsSustainable Brands
This document discusses applying social metrics to product evaluation. It outlines the Triple Bottom Line approach of considering people, planet, and profit. It then discusses the development of social metrics and defining relevant social stakeholders, themes, and aspects. Creating social metrics provides business value by increasing supply chain visibility, managing risks, and allowing for sustainability communication. The document advocates considering social, environmental, and financial indicators together rather than viewing them as a trade-off. It also discusses collaboration between PRé and DSM to develop a common approach to measuring social impacts across a product's lifecycle.
UPMC experienced a data breach that affected over 27,000 employees. Employee personnel data was stolen from UPMC's document management system and used to file fraudulent tax returns. UPMC is working with federal agencies to determine the source of the breach. Some steps UPMC is taking include establishing a payroll hotline, publishing employee information online, and providing credit monitoring services to affected employees.
The document presents a progress chart assessing work toward the United Nations Millennium Development Goals. It shows the level of compliance and progress for various development targets across different world regions. The targets address reducing poverty, hunger, disease, and improving education, gender equality, health, environmental conditions, and global partnerships. Progress or lack of progress is indicated through color coding and text in each box on a regional and country basis.
Redesigning Producer Responsibility: A new EPR is needed for a circular economySustainable Brands
The document analyzes current extended producer responsibility (EPR) schemes in 15 major European cities. It finds that on average, EPR schemes only cover 45% of total product waste generated in municipal solid waste, and less than one-third of total municipal waste. There is significant variation between cities. The document calls for a new approach to EPR that more comprehensively addresses the full lifecycle of products and promotes a circular economy through better design, reuse, and recycling.
The Commodity Crunch: Value at Risk from DeforestationSustainable Brands
This document summarizes CDP's 2013 forests report, which collected information from companies on risks and opportunities related to deforestation. Key findings include:
- 139 companies disclosed, with over $3 trillion in market capitalization, a 39% increase from 2012.
- Demand for commodities like beef, soy, and palm oil is a primary driver of deforestation.
- Companies dependent on these forest risk commodities are exposed to regulatory, reputational, and operational risks from deforestation.
- Disclosing companies improved their scores by an average of 27% compared to 2012, showing better understanding of risks and actions to reduce deforestation impacts.
This document summarizes survey findings about Americans' perceptions of extreme weather and climate change. Key findings include:
- A growing majority of Americans believe global warming is affecting weather in the US and exacerbating extreme weather events.
- Americans increasingly say weather in their local area and across the US has been getting worse in recent years.
- Over half of Americans recall unusual weather events locally or elsewhere in the past year, driven by drought, heat waves and storms.
- Perceptions that droughts and heat waves have become more common locally have increased, particularly in the Midwest.
- More Americans report personally experiencing extreme heat waves and drought in the past year, especially in the Midwest and Northeast.

What progress have the last 12 months seen in translating the value of natural capital in a language the business world hears loud and clear? What new tools and modeling exercises are emerging, and where can one look for a reasonable beginner-level road map?
New Strategies for Impact Investing across All Asset Classes RobertSustainable Brands
Breckinridge Capital Advisors uses environmental, social, and governance (ESG) integration frameworks and proprietary scoring systems to identify lower risk corporate and municipal bond issuers. They analyze ESG data from sources like MSCI, Bloomberg, STAR Communities, and CERES to evaluate reputation, governance, sustainability initiatives, and trends. This allows them to conduct fundamental credit analysis and assign proprietary ratings to build fixed income portfolios that are diversified across sectors with a long-term focus on risk mitigation and their PRI commitment.
O documento discute as tendências crescentes do setor de saúde e fitness, incluindo o aumento da popularidade de ginásios online e treinos virtuais, devido à falta de tempo e necessidade de maior flexibilidade. Ele também destaca os desafios enfrentados por esse novo conceito e as oportunidades de crescimento no futuro, como serviços integrados de bem-estar e internacionalização.
O documento descreve um programa do governo federal chamado "Mais Educação" que tem como objetivo garantir e qualificar a aprendizagem dos alunos no contra-turno escolar por meio de oficinas pedagógicas, atividades sócioeducativas e estratégias de ensino nos campos de apoio pedagógico, cultura e artes, esporte e lazer e inclusão digital. O programa será implementado em uma escola com 10 turmas, 150 alunos matriculados e critérios de seleção focados em defasagem série
Upstart Disruptors Reshaping the Future - Christiaan MaatsSustainable Brands
The pressing need to shift our global economy to sustainable consumption represent one of the biggest opportunities of our time for disruptive innovation.

Transparency & Green Materials: Key Building Blocks for Tomorrow's Brand Lead...Sustainable Brands
Business Week Innovation Columnist and Materials Scientist Andrew Dent will discuss why intelligent and cost-effective sustainability has become increasingly important, particularly as consumers grow weary of being bombarded with “green” solutions of questionable validity. He'll provide some guiding examples of how to approach a new 'good design' ethos, as well as a look at innovative new materials, the present state of recycled materials, and ways to ensure compliance with current and future bans on certain chemicals, and will feature examples from a wide range of industries, including packaging, sneaker design, medical and consumer products, and electronics and housewares.

2. Una famiglia inglese acquistò questa Chiesa, allora in pessime condizioni, per pochi soldi; molti altri ne occor- sero poi per ristrutturarla ed adattarla alle esigenze della famiglia. Le immagini che seguono ce la mostrano in tutta la sua bellezza. La camera è stata posta dove c’era l’altare. La decorazione è veramente stupenda! Voi vivreste in una Chiesa?
