ESG Today: 84% of companies keeping or accelerating climate targets, PwC study finds, and more…

The vast majority of public companies are either retaining or ramping up their climate commitments, with companies found to be more than twice as likely to be increasing their emissions reduction goals than decelerating them, according to a new study released by professional services firm PwC, based on data from climate research provider and environmental disclosure platform CDP.

The study also found that the practice of setting climate goals is progressing down the value chain as companies increase engagement efforts, with smaller companies representing a growing proportion of those introducing new targets.

PUZZLING SKIN CONDITION AFFECTS MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE
THE HIDDEN REALITY OF LIVING WITH A CHRONIC SKIN DISEASE

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is an under-recognized and chronic inflammatory skin condition caused by an overactive immune system that can often go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed for years. The symptoms of HS include recurrent, painful abscesses and lesions and can have a significant physical, mental and social impact. HS can be progressive and increase in severity over time.

HS also presents itself in sensitive areas like the armpits, groin and under the breasts and buttocks, so it may be hidden by clothing – leaving many to suffer in silence. Further, the lack of awareness around this disease may lead to patients going undiagnosed or misdiagnosed for seven or more years. Patients may visit a number of doctors before finding a dermatologist with experience in managing HS to confirm diagnosis and determine a plan that best fits their specific needs.

Dr. Joslyn Kirby, a dermatologist with Penn State University, will bring greater understanding about HS by sharing how it’s more than just an inflammatory skin disease. Dr. Kirby will also discuss the importance for HS patients – along with their caregivers – to advocate for their care and seek out a dermatologist with experience treating HS who can help patients to receive an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment options.

As COVID-19 Cases Continue to Increase in Many US States, Doctors Are Looking to Prepare
Families for What They Can Better Control – The Seasonal Flu

PrepareforFlu.com

While the number of people infected by the flu each year fluctuates based on a variety of factors such as virus strains and characteristics of the person being vaccinated, the CDC findings suggest that about 8% of the United States population contracts symptomatic flu illness every year. However, this flu season will be different than those of the past, as this year the US is also navigating the COVID-19 pandemic.

Many questions and anxieties remain surrounding the global pandemic, including when a vaccine will be available, whether a second wave is coming, or even when the first wave will end. Amid increased uncertainty, and as a result of the impacts of both the flu and COVID-19, doctors are actively preparing their communities to help stay protected and healthy.

This year, an important action that parents can take for their families is to talk to a healthcare provider about getting a flu vaccine. In fact, the CDC is encouraging flu vaccination for the upcoming season, now more than ever, to help reduce the burden on the healthcare system. While some people regularly get a flu vaccine, others do not. There are several vaccine options available, even for those who prefer a needle-free option. The CDC does not recommend one flu vaccine over another. It is important to speak to your healthcare provider to determine which vaccine is right for you and your loved ones.

Dr. Ravi Jhaveri, MD, Associate Division Head of Pediatric Infectious Diseases at the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago and Professor of Pediatrics at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine will discuss how parents can prepare their families for this year’s flu season, while navigating alongside a global pandemic.

WIN SCHOLARSHIP AS EARLY AS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. NOW IS A GREAT TIME TO STUDY WHAT SCHOLARSHIPS MIGHT HELP YOU.
Over the past 15 years, college scholarship strategist Jean O’Toole has spoken before thousands of students, inspiring them to pursue their academic dreams. Now she has a new book out that helps them afford those dreams, Scholarship Strategies: Finding and Winning the Money You Need (Morgan James Publishing, Trade Paper,128 pages, $17.95, ISBN: 987-1-64279-482-3).

www.amazon.com/Scholarship-Strategies-Finding-Winning-Money/dp/1642794821

“You don’t need to be academically at the top of your class a star athlete, or a student with financial need in order to qualify for thousands of dollars of scholarship opportunities,” asserts O’Toole, co-founder of Connections101, a youth empowerment company specializing in motivational tools for outside scholarship searching.
O’Toole has helped students win thousands of dollars, including some individuals that were awarded up to $200,000.
“Money for college is out there,” she encourages. “You just need to know where to find it and how to win it. It’s all about working smarter and not harder. ”
In Scholarship Strategies, the motivational speaker shares her vast knowledge, laying out 25 clear strategies for winning the money needed for college, and identifies 15 ways to reduce college costs beyond scholarships and traditional financial aid.
O’Toole shares:
● How students can take a smart, methodical, organized, and disciplined approach to apply for many winnable scholarships.
● Which scholarships have less competition and lower thresholds to win?
● How students can identify their strengths, interests, connections, demographics, and accomplishments in order to be in a position to qualify for plenty of scholarships.
● Additional money students can win for room and board, books, travel, or study abroad – even if they get a full ride because of academics, athletics, or financial need.
● How parents can collaborate with students to divide and conquer the scholarship search process.
● Why guidance counselors, librarians, financial advisors, alumni, and government agencies each only know about some scholarships — and why you need to consult with many resources to get a complete picture of the scholarship landscape.
● Harmful scholarship myths that are debunked.
● How students as young as kindergarteners and middle-schoolers — or those older than 30 — can still win scholarships.
● Many examples of odd, unique, and rare scholarships that almost anyone could win.
“Higher education costs continue to rise,” says O’Toole. “Student loan debt has surpassed credit card debt in the United States reaching $1.5 Trillion dollars. Whether it costs a family$30,000 or $300,000 for a college degree, scholarship monies can dramatically reduce costs and benefit the bottom line..”
Some of O’Toole’s strategies include:
● Applying for local and regional scholarships first.
● Seeking out a series of small scholarships and not just one big one.
● Starting a scholarship search even before high school.
● Joining groups and organizations so you can qualify to apply for their scholarships.
● Asking family members and friends about scholarships from their employer, group affiliations, Jonestown.
● Talk to scholarship winners to gain insight on how they won.
● Form a bond with a scholarship buddy and share info on scholarships to apply to.
● Start applying early and often – and keep track of your applications.
● Using past homework assignments as material for scholarships as a huge time saver.
“Parents and students will be amazed at how much money is available to them for scholarships they never imagined even existed,” says O’Toole. “Anyone who follows the advice in Scholarships Strategies and uses the resources at www.Connections101.com are certain to find more scholarships than if they only rely on their school guidance offices.
“Jean’s energy and enthusiasm capture the student’s attention from the get-go, and she gets them to think about college and scholarships in new and different ways. Not only does she share her knowledge and insight with students, but she also provides them with strategies they need to take action and be successful in their pursuits. Jean provides an amazing resource; there is nothing like it out there!”
–Fran Fercara, College Counselor, Fort Hamilton High School, New York City

Ayurveda is the science of life, a 5,000-year-old traditional holistic system of well-being from India. ‘ayur’ means ‘of life’ and Veda’ means ‘knowledge’. Ayurveda is the knowledge of longevity which offers healing, rejuvenation and self-realization through balanced food, herbs, yoga, massage, aroma, and meditation.

Ayurveda teaches us to pay attention to how and what we eat, and to take responsibility for our health.
Ayurveda is very clear when it comes to food. Sattvic (pure) food is needed to heal and maintain good health and must incorporate six tastes in every meal: sweet, sour, salty, bitter, astringent and pungent.

Modern medical science also recommends a vegetarian diet for good health and prevention of stress-related , health problems.
