Amen

Longtime #corporateresponsibility leader @Unilever commits to make all 70,000 of its products (with 2bn customers) biodegradable by 2030, and to disclose the amount of carbon used to produce them, as part of reaching net zero emissions by 2039. cnn.it/2Z0txxU

"The past is never dead. It's not even past." History matters.

Our vibrant, diverse workforce is our greatest asset, and our Dreamers are an essential part of our @EY_US family and culture of belonging. I’m hopeful this is the beginning of permanent protections for #DACA and Dreamers everywhere.

Transparency is the bedrock of some pretty important things: democracy, functioning capital markets, adult relationships. So this is ... what? It's almost as if there was something to hide.

These actions are concrete and meaningful. Look forward to rolling up my sleeves with my colleagues.

Serious #corporateresponsibility allows no daylight between CR reports and corporate risk disclosures or media coverage. Too often, "when an issue is 'material' enough to threaten core operating models, companies ignore, evade, and equivocate." bit.ly/36BJPAZ @qz

This is super-deep on the topic of heterosexual, two-parent family life during a pandemic that turns out to cast a harsh light on gender relations (as on every other kind of social relations) in the US. bit.ly/2Tso5SQ

This is heartbreaking. Also devastating for the climate, given the huge differential between the environmental impacts of small family farming vs factory farming.

Through #CollegeMAP, @EY_US people in 37 US cities mentor underserved students to achieve the dream of college. In 7 years, we've awarded $3.5m in scholarships. Now, we've added just-in-time grants for Collegians facing emergencies and unexpected needs. go.ey.com/2Zj0iIt

Once again, @Chobani embodies #corporateresponsibility: extreme generosity in the time of Covid-19. Donations to food banks, conversion of stores to food pantries, free consulting on supply chain, support for dairy farmers, participation in #NourishNewYork bit.ly/2yjIWjO
