I have some Concerns™ about Canada's air quality and I'm not seeing much reported on it here in the states.

with all of this talk of climate + touring etc. i just wanted to post about reverb, an organization that partners with musicians, festivals, and venues to help make their concerts/events a little more environmentally friendly! they do some really great work, and i've always found their impact reports really interesting too 🤍 they've worked with artists such as the 1975, lorde, billie eilish, paramore, boygenius, among others! they're currently only accepting volunteers for the 1975's UK still... at their very best tour, but it's a great org to follow! 🤍

Uniphos Enterprises Limited Releases Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report for FY 2023-24

UEL is a leading player in trading in chemicals and agro-commodities. It has released its Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR) for the fiscal year 2023-24. The report, presented in conformity with SEBI’s Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements Regulations, 2015, reflects the company’s initiative regarding ethical governance, environmental care, and social responsibility.

Overview: In an era where corporate accountability runs parallel, UEL’s BRSR 2023-24 reflects the commitment of UEL towards sustainability and responsible business behavior. The report epitomizes salient features of the company’s operations, best governance practices, and environmental impact, focusing on core values related to excellence, integrity, respect, and collaboration.

Body UEL was incorporated in 1969 and is essentially a trading company. A large portion of the turnover consists of trading in chemicals and agro commodities. For FY 2023–24, revenue from trading operations contributed 54.16%, while income from investments in equity shares and mutual funds contributed 42.26% of revenue.

The company is headquartered in Mumbai with regional offices based in Gujarat. Its staff is on deputation, with only a small number being UEL recruits; it has taken important steps in maintaining gender diversity—one-third of the members on the Board of Directors comprise women.

The report enumerates corporate governance practices in which UEL has also ensured the whistleblower policy to get grievances over and above transparency. UEL further states its due compliance with regulatory requirements, as amply evidenced by the reaction of the company to a minor delay in the regulatory filings for which the waiver of the fine was sought from stock exchanges.

Although UEL is not a manufacturing company, the report reflects the concern of the company regarding environmental sustainability. The environmental impact of UEL is very minimal, as the company consumes limited amounts of energy only and does not produce much waste that is considered harmful to the environment. The sustainability practice at UEL is mainly limited to ensuring full compliance with environmental laws and regulations, and operations are performed in a manner to ensure no adverse impact on the environment.

From the viewpoint of social responsibility, the activities of UEL are restricted to its scale of operation; however, the company maintains a conducive and non-threatening workplace. It is pointed out in the report that UEL follows the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016, providing accessibility in offices and non-discrimination in employment.

UEL’s commitment to doing good business is further reflected in its anti-bribery and anti-corruption policies, although the company has not adopted a stand-alone anti-corruption policy; rather, the principles are encapsulated within its general code of conduct meant for all employees and major vendors.

Overview The Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report for FY 2023-24 underlines the commitment of Uniphos Enterprises Limited to promote the gold standard in corporate governance, care for the environment, and observe social responsibility. Though the operation of the company remains limited within the scope mentioned, its commitment remains toward responsible business practices. While moving forward with challenges in the modern business landscape, UEL remains focused on aspects related to sustainability, transparency, and ethical conduct and sets a good example for such categories of companies.

Gundam Wing: 3x4 tries to conserve water

TROWA  Quatre is on an environmental conservation kick, so I suggested we shower together to save water.

DUO  Ohhhhh I know exactly where this is going 😏

WUFEI  *ignoring Duo*  And how’d that work out?

TROWA  The shower took three times as long as our separate showers combined would have taken and we wasted gallons upon gallons of water.

DUO  😏😏😏

WUFEI  ...which is NOT good for the environment.

TROWA  No it is not.  Quatre doesn’t want to fool around with me in the shower anymore.

DUO  Oh, dang, that sucks--

TROWA  We’re going to fool around before the shower instead 😈

"While it’s true human consumption harms the environment, eco-fascists place the blame exclusively on the marginalized. Because consumerism produces massive amounts of garbage, eco-fascists incorrectly blame poor people (of color) for using plastic bags and other cheap, disposable products — often without pointing to the damage done by major polluting corporations, like those in the fossil fuel industry. "

"Other familiar ecofascist ideas include misanthropic statements that the world would be better without humans, which not only leaves open the possibility that it might be ethically permissible for mass numbers of humans to die (a popular suggestion early on during the COVID-19 pandemic) but also opens the door for eugenic arguments among explicit ecofascists about which humans deserve to live and which do not. Given that it is typically able-bodied, white, Anglo-Saxon, cisgendered heterosexual men who explicitly declare themselves ecofascists, the answer is often unsurprising."

The Landback movement is a lot more then environmentalism but I sincerely believe it is a keystone to the future success of any climate action. The center of Landback is about justice for Indigenous peoples.
