SUMMARY:Packaging Targets: Set and Meet Them with Plastic IQ
DESCRIPTION:Companies across the United States have publicly announced ambitious sustainable plastic packaging targets to accomplish by 2030 or sooner\, but many lack the proper resources and time to understand exactly how to get there. Simultaneously\, plastic pollution leakage into the environment is a key topic across multiple sectors\, including the waste industry. What will it take to reduce plastic packaging waste in the U.S.\, and how can brands and retailers positively influence the outcomes? Without sustainable packaging strategies to manage broad portfolios\, it is difficult to weigh decisions that will result in the best environmental and economic outcomes. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin The Recycling Partnership and esteemed panelists from Walmart\, WWF\, and Blue Apron to hear why more than 200 U.S. companies are using Plastic IQ\, a free\, customizable tool to make informed circular packaging decisions across their plastics portfolios. Supported by Walmart and co-developed with SYSTEMIQ\, this open access tool allows users to compare solutions for reduction\, reuse\, recyclability\, and compostability and assess the most impactful options for meeting packaging targets by 2025 or 2030. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKey Takeways: \n\n\n\n\nAccess the best data available for setting and meeting plastic packaging targets – for free\n\n\n\nHear from industry leaders how the tool is driving their high impact solutions\n\n\n\nConnect with Walmart Project Gigaton and U.S. Plastics Pact Activator reporting\n\n\n\nPrepare for U.S. policy as the landscape quickly evolves\n\n\n\nGain public recognition for commitments\, if desired\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by SustainBrands\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMatt BirdMatt Bird is the Founder\, CEO\, and Editor-in-Chief of ESG News.

SUMMARY:ESG Integration Forum Europe 2022
DESCRIPTION:CHALLENGING ESG\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegulators in Europe continue to develop regulations that impact sustainable finance\, ESG reporters\, and ESG raters. However\, a section of the investment universe is becoming more vocal regarding their opposition to the ESG movement. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAt the ESG Integration Forum – Europe 2022\, you will join sustainability professionals\, investor relations officers\, and corporate secretaries to examine future investor expectations of company ESG performance and sustainability reporting. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“ESG risks and opportunities are constantly changing and bringing up new challenges. In the last 12 months\, we have seen ESG activism\, momentum building regarding policy on sustainability\, new diversity requirements for public companies and increased focus on net-zero commitments. The ESG integration forum was the only event that brought together the key functions within a public company to tackle the challenges in this rapidly developing space. We believe that businesses don’t operate in silos\, and neither should our events!” \nSteven Wade\, head of event content\, Corporate Secretary and IR Magazine.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://twitter.com/IRMagazine\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMatt BirdMatt Bird is the Founder\, CEO\, and Editor-in-Chief of ESG News.

SUMMARY:The 6th Sustainability Summit for south-east Europe and the Mediterranean
DESCRIPTION:Redefining sustainability in an unsustainable world\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn the wake of the covid-19 pandemic and the Russian invasion in Ukraine\, the need to redefine the concept of sustainability on a global basis has arisen. New big challenges emerge\, such as disruption in the energy sector\, the threat of a food crisis\, new refugee flows\, restructuring of public health systems\, changes in the workplace and labour relations. The already existing crucial issues of sustainability\, such as climate crisis and biodiversity loss\, poverty and inequalities\, transformation of cities\, are thus being addressed within a new context. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAgainst this background\, the discussion on sustainability becomes of great importance. Many new –and old– questions require answers and\, most important\, demand effective and inclusive action: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow will the SDGs work after pandemic and the war in Ukraine?\n\n\n\nIs there a link between biodiversity loss and the pandemics?\n\n\n\nEU’s and European governments’ reaction to the refugee crisis\n\n\n\nWhat changes are needed in terms of production\, trade and food consumption?\n\n\n\nIs there risk of a decarbonisation reversal?\n\n\n\nIs nuclear energy a solution to the explosion of energy prices?\n\n\n\nAre inequalities being sharpened in the post-pandemic working environment?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAgainst this background\, the discussion on sustainability becomes of great importance. Many new –and old– questions require answers and\, most important\, demand effective and inclusive action: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWithin this context\, The Economist Impact Events in partnership with SDSN Europe\, SDSN Greece and EIT Climate- KIC Hub Greece have great pleasure in announcing the organisation of the Sixth Economist Sustainability Summit for South-East Europe and the Mediterranean scheduled to take place on November 30th & December 1st\, 2022 at the Divani Apollon Palace & Thalasso in Kavouri. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by Economist_SEUR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMatt BirdMatt Bird is the Founder\, CEO\, and Editor-in-Chief of ESG News.
