A new industry study released today and developed by a technical working group co-led by The Chemours Company (Chemours) and Solstice Advanced Materials Inc., finds that refrigerant emissions from automotive air conditioning systems in Europe could be reduced by up to 60%+ annually by 2050, with an average of half of cumulative emissions avoided between 2030 and 2050, through coordinated measures implemented across the full automotive value chain.

The comprehensive research, conducted by a technical working group and informed by stakeholders involving the whole vehicle lifecycle, including leading automotive manufacturers, suppliers, and refrigerant experts, shows that significant reductions can be achieved. For the European market, the study provides detailed lifecycle-based assessments of refrigerant emissions.

The findings highlight the critical role of collaborative industry action and circular economy solutions, including reclamation and recycling, in accelerating Europe’s climate and sustainability goals.

Key Findings:

• 60%+ reduction in annual refrigerant emissions by 2050 compared with current baseline projections
• ≈ 50% cumulative emissions reduction between 2030 and 2050, supporting long term sustainability goals.
• Cost‑neutral outcomes for consumers, as investments are offset by longer component lifetimes and avoided repair costs
• Comparable effectiveness across internal combustion, hybrid, and battery electric vehicles, underscoring system relevance during the EV transition

“This analysis shows that a large share of automotive refrigerant emissions can potentially be avoided using technologies and practices that already exist across today’s value chain,” said Joseph Martinko, President, Thermal & Specialized Solutions at Chemours. “The data reinforces the importance of lifecycle‑based policy approaches that reduce emissions while preserving vehicle performance, affordability, serviceability and supporting the circularity of refrigerants.”

The study’s recommendations are ready for rapid adoption across both conventional combustion engine and electric vehicles, supporting the shift toward a circular economy including end-of-life management through reclamation and recycling programs. These actions are underpinned by broad collaboration across the automotive value chain, paving the way for measurable progress in environmental sustainability and industry best practices.

Recycling programs continue to improve and become more accessible, increasing opportunities for everyone to do their part in giving materials a second life and reducing waste. In 2025 alone, nearly 2.5 million additional households gained the ability to recycle food and beverage cartons.

Learn how the simple act of carton recycling can reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills, plus creates valuable products. This helps to reduce the demand on limited resources as well as the environmental impact of extracting those resources.

Beginning with recyclable materials

To ensure recycling is possible, it’s vital for companies to start with materials that can be repurposed after their primary use is done. With this goal from the start, Tetra Pak^® designed their food and beverage packages with their second life already in mind. The average Tetra Pak carton is made from 70% paperboard, a renewable material derived from responsibly managed sources, such as from Forest Stewardship Council^® (FSC^®) certified forests and other controlled sources. This special packaging protects its contents and is recyclable for the majority of U.S. households.

Tetra Pak has worked to promote and encourage more effective widespread recycling programs. In 2009, the company joined with other carton manufacturers in the U.S. to establish the Carton Council, an organization committed to increasing the number of cartons that are collected, sorted, and recycled. The Carton Council aims to build a sustainable infrastructure and to continue advancing carton recycling throughout the country.

What happens to cartons in their second life

By recycling your cartons, you’re not just reducing what ends up in a landfill, you’re helping create new products, such as tissue products, writing paper and even green building materials.

Once cartons have been collected, they are taken to the local materials recovery facility (MRF). There they are sorted and baled, and those bales are sent to recyclers where they can follow one of two paths: being sent to a papermill or to a building materials producer.

The most common path leads cartons to papermills, where they are turned into pulp by a hydrapulper. The pulp is then rolled into thin sheets and is used to create tissues, toilet paper and writing paper.

Cartons that go to a building materials producer are shredded, then pressed under high heat into long-lasting, green building materials for roof systems.

NEW YORK, May 13, 2026 /3BL/ – With the UK’s adoption of new Sustainability Reporting Standards (SRS), sustainability consulting and research firm Governance & Accountability Institute (G&A) has issued a resource paper to help companies prepare.

The new SRS signal the UK Government’s support for International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) standards, which have now been adopted by more than 40 countries, while seeking to simplify its corporate disclosure landscape. The SRS, which are currently voluntary, aim to raise the quality and comparability of companies’ sustainability information for the benefit of investors, consumers, employees, and communities.

G&A’s resource paper, “The UK Now Has Sustainability Reporting Standards,” is designed to help companies with UK operations better understand the SRS. The paper is available through G&A’s research hub. An “Ask the Analyst” explainer is available here.

“Finalized earlier this year, the UK SRS mark the UK’s bid to become a global center for sustainable finance — and adds it to a growing list of jurisdictions adapting ISSB’s global baseline into local rules,” said Louis D. Coppola, CEO & Co-Founder at G&A Institute. “For multinational companies, that means another disclosure regime to navigate alongside CSRD, ISSB itself, other local and regional adaptations emerging in markets from California to Singapore, and the voluntary frameworks they’re already reporting against. This resource paper is designed to help global organizations understand what UK SRS actually require, how they connect to the broader international standards landscape, and where to focus first.”

Coppola added, “Companies are coming at this from very different starting points — some are building their first sustainability disclosure program, others have years of GRI, SASB, TCFD, and other reporting behind them. At G&A we meet clients where they are and help them either build new disclosures or translate existing work into what UK SRS, ISSB, CSRD, and other local and regional requirements now demand — using an interoperability-first approach that minimizes duplication of effort across overlapping frameworks. The companies that get this right will spend less on compliance and more on actually improving performance.”

The paper provides key reminders and recommendations covering:

• Overview of the UK’s new SRS including current implementation timelines
• How the SRS compares to other frameworks and aligns with IFRS S1 and S2 while having UK-specific adaptations
• Which companies are covered and details on eventual mandatory reporting for companies listed in the UK
• Recommendations for covered companies, like mapping current disclosures to SRS and building audit-ready documentation ahead of mandates

Designed for UK-listed companies anywhere in the world, the paper is essential reading to prepare for the evolving sustainability disclosure landscape and align with global reporting frameworks.

During Earth Month 2026, Everpure deepened its commitment to sustainability as employees worldwide volunteered in initiatives focused on climate action, renewable energy education, ecosystem restoration, and circular economy projects.

In April, Everpure employees around the world came together to turn our sustainability values into action for Earth Month. In collaboration with the Everpure Foundation, teams hosted hands-on volunteer events, learning sessions, and local upcycling activities that made environmental stewardship tangible in offices and communities alike. Over 10% of our global employees participated in Earth Month activities, demonstrating our commitment to sustainability and a culture of purpose.

Renewable energy and climate education

Employees came together to provide tools for sustainable energy and empower the next generation with environmental knowledge.

• Solar energy stations: Employees in Singapore and Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina, built stations to teach children about the mechanics and benefits of renewable energy for local nonprofit organizations Kampung Senang and El Futuro North Carolina.
• Solar lamp construction: Teams in Lehi, Utah, assembled solar lamps to help Community Action Services & Food Bank promote the practical use of solar energy.
• Climate action kits: In India, teammates created educational kits designed to engage local youth in climate advocacy, benefiting Bangalore-based Need Base India.
• Virtual design-thinking challenge: Across the US, employees participated in a virtual hackathon hosted by Team4Tech, brainstorming solutions to support climate advocate user communities and stakeholder engagement.
• Sustainability panel: Employees globally tuned in to hear from representatives throughout the company on how they’re embedding sustainability into their corporate strategies.

Biodiversity and ecosystem restoration

This theme covered “boots-on-the-ground” work to repair natural habitats and support local wildlife populations.

• Reforestation: In Prague, employees collaborated with longtime partner Sázíme Stromy, planting trees to restore biodiversity on deforested land.
• Seed ball creation: In Calgary, employees and customers worked together to create seed balls for CPAWS Southern Alberta, a nonprofit conservation organization working to promote thriving, healthy, and diverse lands and waters in Alberta.
• Wildlife habitat protection: The Santa Clara team collaborated with South Bay Clean Creeks Coalition to remove trash and debris from Los Gatos Creek, specifically to support the health of local salmon and beaver populations.
• Marine research: Employees throughout Europe analyzed images of the Great Barrier Reef, assisting Citizens of the Reef in their quest to deliver broad-scale data to reef managers globally.
• Community cleanups: Employees in Dublin, Ireland; Lehi, Utah; and Staines, UK, rolled up their sleeves to clean up trash from their local parks.

Circular economy and digital footprint

In addition to volunteering, employees focused on reducing waste and making conscious shifts in daily habits.

• Upcycling and composting: Employees in Prague and Santa Clara gave new life to old materials by upcycling clothing and backpacks.
• E-waste and digital trash cleanup: Team members around the world dropped off old electronics for recycling and reduced their environmental footprint by taking out digital trash.
• Sustainability panel: Subject matter experts from engineering, finance, supply chain, and more came together to discuss how they’re embedding sustainability into their business strategies.
   

Earth Month celebrations culminated in a fireside chat with professional climber and climate advocate Alex Honnold, who shared his journey and how the Honnold Foundation is using community-scale solar projects to advance climate resilience and energy equity around the world. Employees rallied around these efforts, raising $20,000 for the Honnold Foundation’s programs.

These efforts are part of a broader Everpure commitment to embed sustainability into how we work every day—from our people to our facilities to our products. By combining local volunteerism, listening sessions, and hands-on workshops, Everpure and the Everpure Foundation are helping employees turn climate concerns into concrete steps for people and the planet. As we close out Earth Month, one thing is clear: When our global community leans in together, small actions add up to meaningful, measurable impact.

For more than twelve years, Kyle Naser has dedicated himself to serving both his country and CACI’s mission. Today, he balances two demanding careers — serving in the Army National Guard while working at CACI as a customer satisfaction analyst with the company’s Operational Excellence team. His story reflects a deep sense of purpose, resilience, and commitment to continuous growth.

Naser’s journey began in August 2013, when he enlisted as a chaplain assistant in the Pennsylvania Army National Guard. Initially, his goal was straightforward: to use military service to help fund his education at Georgetown University. But after his assignment the following year to a Field Artillery Battalion, he decided to pursue a career as an Army officer.

“I really fell in love with the Redleg community,” he said. “That sense of camaraderie and purpose drew me in and ultimately pushed me to join ROTC and pursue a commission as a field artillery officer.”

Over the next decade, Naser built a distinguished military career marked by increasing responsibility and diverse operational experiences. His early roles included serving as a chaplain assistant before moving on to lead soldiers as a platoon leader in C Battery, 1‑108th Field Artillery. Following his first assignment, Naser served in a variety of roles across the Pennsylvania Army National Guard including fire direction officer, platoon leader, and fire support officer.

One of the defining experiences of his service came in 2024, when he deployed to the Horn of Africa as a joint operations liaison officer with Task Force Paxton. Each assignment prepared him for what he considers the most challenging role of his career: his current assignment as commander of Headquarters and Headquarters Battery, 1‑108th Field Artillery.

While advancing in the military, Naser simultaneously built an impressive nine‑year career at CACI. He joined the company in 2017 as a background investigator before moving into a business analyst role with a Navy customer. He later served as a resource manager and, in October 2023, he transitioned into his current role as a customer satisfaction analyst, a position that allows him to support teams across the enterprise and help drive operational excellence.

“My work at CACI and my life in the military fuel one another,” Naser said. “I bring my training, discipline, and experience into everything I do at CACI, and the professional growth I’ve had here only sharpens me as a soldier. Having both careers has made me more adaptable, more capable, and more well‑rounded.”

Throughout his service, CACI has been a steadfast supporter of Naser’s military commitments. He recalled multiple periods of schooling, two National Training Center rotations, and his deployment, each requiring time away from the company. Even so, he never felt like he had to choose between his careers.

One moment stands out: he was hired into his current role just ten weeks before deploying to the Horn of Africa. His supervisor, Chris Trahant, recognized the value he would bring and supported him wholeheartedly despite the short window before his departure. In May 2024, Trahant received an Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve Patriot Award for his unyielding support during this time.

While overseas, the support continued as Trahant sent monthly updates to keep him informed about significant corporate and team changes. When he returned in January 2025, the Operational Excellence team welcomed him back warmly, allowing him to pick up right where he left off.

“I could not have asked for better support during that deployment,” he said. “My team reached out regularly, kept me updated on major changes, and made it clear that they cared about both my service and my return. That level of support meant more than they know.”

Today, Naser continues to serve with dedication, both as a leader in the Pennsylvania Army National Guard and as a valued member of CACI’s Operational Excellence team. His story highlights what’s possible when purpose, opportunity, and unwavering support come together, underscoring CACI’s commitment to empowering veterans to continue their mission, wherever it leads.

The Museum of Life and Science received a one-year-old male American black bear cub for its Explore the Wild: Black Bear habitat. The 110-pound cub joins the Museum’s two adult black bears, Little (5) and Murray (3).

Montana wildlife officials found the cub abandoned in December 2025 and determined him to be at certain risk of death over winter. Those officials then contacted the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA), of which the Museum is a proud member, who reached out to the Museum to give him a home, thus ensuring his long-term wellbeing. To honor his native habitat and those wildlife officials who rescued him, the Animal Care Team has chosen to name the cub “Montana.” FedEx provided in-kind shipping to transport Montana and the presiding veterinarian to Raleigh-Durham International Airport as part of the company’s FedEx Cares Delivering for Good initiative.

“We are so appreciative of our partners at Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks, AZA, and FedEx,” Senior Director of Animal Care Sherry Samuels said. “The care and speed in which so many came together to make sure this cub was cared for is a testament to the amazing things that happen when people come together for a common good.”

The Museum of Life and Science has a long-standing commitment to wildlife conservation and education, and the introduction of the new bear cub aligns with this mission. The bear habitat in Explore the Wild provides a unique opportunity for visitors to witness the natural behaviors and social dynamics of these native creatures, reinforcing the importance of conservation efforts.

PNC | Insights

More than 20% of U.S. households speak a language other than English at home, with Spanish by far the most common. Families are also more likely to engage with educational materials when those resources are available in their first language.

That’s why PNC Crezca con Éxito, the Spanish-language identity for PNC Grow Up Great, has been keeping Spanish-speaking little learners and families top of mind since the company’s early childhood education initiative launched in 2004.

“PNC Grow Up Great has been a Spanish and English initiative since early on, with the reasoning that it was simply the right thing to do to help prepare children across our communities for success in school and life,” said Sally McCrady, chair and president of the PNC Foundation. “Since PNC also offered its products and services in both languages, it was important to model our early education initiative this way as well.”

Bilingual learning in action

Here are some examples of PNC Grow Up Great’s Spanish-language offerings and initiatives:

• New educational resources are launched each year in partnership with Sesame Workshop, the creators of Sesame Street, and they’re always created in English and Spanish. The latest offerings focus on sparking children’s curiosity and building school-readiness skills in everyday moments outdoors.
   
• The PNC Grow Up Great Lesson Center offers 150+ bilingual lesson plans for pre-K teachers and families of young children.
   
• Since 2021, PNC Grow Up Great has collaborated with the PBS Foundation to amplify many of these lessons on PBS LearningMedia, with each of the enhanced lessons and accompanying resources available in Spanish as well as English. This has significantly expanded the Spanish resources available on PBS LearningMedia, a reputable source of educational materials for parents and educators.
   
• PNC has been a proud sponsor of Fred Rogers Productions’ Alma’s Way since the PBS KIDS series launched in 2022. The show follows Alma Rivera, a confident 6-year-old Puerto Rican girl in the Bronx who learns self-awareness, empathy, and problem-solving by sharing her “way” of figuring things out with viewers.
   
• Since 2014, PNC Grow Up Great has supported the TMW Center for Early Learning + Public Health at the University of Chicago on various aspects of their 3Ts program – Tune In, Talk More, and Take Turns. 3Ts resources, available in English and Spanish, foster knowledge and build skills that parents can use to promote foundational brain development in their children, and help them feel empowered as their child’s first teacher.
   
• PNC Grow Up Great shows up in local communities with an emphasis on Spanish and English – through the Mobile Learning Adventure, Be My Neighbor Day events and a variety of educational resources offered to families.
   
• Every April, when PNC celebrates “Great Month” as an opportunity to highlight PNC Grow Up Great, “Great Readers” resources are available in both English and Spanish. These enable PNC employee volunteers to read the Great Readers book to pre-K children in Spanish, and they get a Spanish-language copy to take home. Teachers also receive an accompanying classroom resource in Spanish to help bring the book to life.
   
• The PNC Grow Up Great website, fact sheet and online resources are available in Spanish and English.
   
• All paid media marketing campaigns are launched in both languages, like a recent campaign that further integrated PNC Grow Up Great into the company’s brand philosophy, highlighting the importance of boring in all that is brilliant. The campaign targeted the program’s audience of parents, educators and caregivers of children from birth through age 5 with memorable words and visuals, underscoring the importance of a strong foundation in helping a child succeed in school and life.

“For PNC Grow Up Great, bilingual offerings are about more than language,” said Julie Sudduth, PNC regional president for Greater Houston. “They reflect a broader commitment to supporting Spanish-speaking families across our communities and meeting families where they are, so every child has the opportunity to grow, learn and succeed.”
