HOUSTON, Sept. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — LyondellBasell (NYSE: LYB) today announced the company has obtained the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) PLUS certification for certain grades of polyethylene and polypropylene produced at four of its U.S. manufacturing sites. ISCC PLUS certification is a globally-recognized system for providing traceability of recycled and renewable-based materials across the supply chain.

ISCC PLUS certification enables LyondellBasell to extend its Circulen suite of products to customers in North America and offer mass balance certificates for these products. The company will begin North American Circulen production with its CirculenRevive products, which are polymers produced from plastic waste through an advanced recycling process¹, initially using feedstock provided by third parties. LyondellBasell expects to gradually ramp up production to meet growing demand over the coming years.

“The ISCC PLUS certification of four of our North American sites will help us bring more sustainable solutions to our customers,” said Ken Lane, LyondellBasell Executive Vice President of Global Olefins and Polyolefins. “By delivering these new CirculenRevive products, we are proving plastics have value beyond their initial use, in any application that virgin plastic is used. The ISCC PLUS certification helps us to accelerate our progress as an industry leader in the production and marketing of recycled and renewable-based polymers.”

LyondellBasell secured the certification for its crackers in Channelview, Texas and its polymer sites in Lake Charles, Louisiana; La Porte, Texas; and Clinton, Iowa. The company plans to broaden the ISCC PLUS certification to its other North American polymer plants. The ISCC PLUS certification is part of the company’s multi-pronged approach to help advance the circular economy. In addition, LyondellBasell continues to develop its own proprietary advanced (molecular) recycling technology to enable a more efficient chemical conversion process and use less energy than other technologies.

SAN DIEGO, Sept. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Illumina, Inc. (NASDAQ: ILMN) elevates climate action goals with commitments for net zero greenhouse gas emissions aligned with the Paris Agreement, commits to verified Science Based Targets, signs the Business Ambition for 1.5 degree and joins the United Nations campaign Race to Zero.

“Human health and the health of our environment are intertwined. At Illumina, we are dedicated to making a positive impact on humanity, through the applications of our breakthrough genomics technologies, and also through how we operate,” said Francis deSouza, Chief Executive Officer of Illumina. “With our commitment to responsible and sustainable practices, we aim to help shape a more sustainable and equitable future for all.”

Illumina has set science-based emission reduction targets across their entire value chain that are consistent with keeping global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. They have also committed to a long-term target of net-zero emissions by 2050. Targets have been submitted for verification with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and include commitment to SBTi’s most ambitious guidelines.

Illumina has signed the “Business Ambition for 1.5°C,”  a global coalition set up by the UN Global Compact, the Science Based Targets initiative, and We Mean Business Ambition for 1.5°C. Illumina also joins the United Nations “Race to Zero” campaign in the run-up to the 26^th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP26) and underlines Illumina’s commitment to leadership in corporate social responsibility. These elevated climate action goals represent an upgrade from previous targets Illumina had modeled using 2°C climate scenarios and an associated 30 percent emission reduction effort. In line with the latest research, Illumina has now adjusted their carbon emission reduction targets to the most aggressive climate action goals.

On the path to net zero, Illumina has established milestone targets including a 46 percent reduction of emissions from our direct operations by 2030 and a 46 percent reduction of emissions from our indirect operations with a focus on the value chain elements associated with purchased materials, transportation, investments, business travel, and employee commuting.

Included in Illumina’s Climate Action plan is a $20 million philanthropic commitment by 2030 to support initiatives dedicated to sustainability innovation, environmental education, urban tree planting, biodiversity research, sustainable agriculture projects. 

“We have integrated our sustainability goals into our giving strategy acknowledging that often the most vulnerable populations in the world are being impacted the most by climate change despite having contributed the least to the climate crisis,” said Sharon Vidal, Global Lead of Corporate Social Responsibility. “There is tremendous opportunity for innovation, collaboration, and community engagement to collectively make an impact and protect our communities and the planet.”

“Climate change represents a threat to human health, the environment, and the global economy,” said Sam Samad, Chief Financial Officer at Illumina. “Setting ambitious emission reduction targets are an important part of our overall business strategy to minimize risk associated with climate change, identify opportunities, build resilience on potential climate impact, and be transparent with all our stakeholders on our progress.”

The company’s net zero progress will be reported yearly in the annual Corporate Social Responsibility Report  and CDP submission.

BOSTON, Sept. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Learning technology company Houghton Mifflin Harcourt today announced major enhancements to its connected teaching and learning platform, Ed^® and to the HMH Growth Measure, its embedded, evidence-based assessment system. This next step in the evolution of HMH’s platform and built-in assessment functionality will create even more seamless integration across district and school edtech ecosystems, underscoring HMH’s commitment to supporting educators in COVID learning recovery and improving outcomes for all learners.

Combining the best of technology, content, and instruction, the newly-improved Ed provides a personalized user experience with HMH’s robust suite of programs. The new interface streamlines access to HMH solutions for both teachers and students with features and improvements like easier content discovery, enhanced lesson planning and rostering tools, and updates to the Teacher’s Corner professional learning content hub. HMH Go, the free mobile app, will continue to make it possible for students to complete exercises offline and sync-up the next time they’re connected.

Also part of this back-to-school refresh are programs newly available on Ed this fall, including HMH intervention program English 3D, which supports mastery of academic language for multilingual learners, an important focus for learning recovery. HMH’s adaptive practice program Waggle will include a new K-2 student experience for ELA and Math, providing the youngest learners with new opportunities to polish their foundational skills. Enhancements to Amira Learning, the award-winning AI-based reading tutor, will offer Spanish language support and expanded grade levels.

“We know the pandemic has widened the range of student achievement levels in one classroom, making it even more challenging for teachers to differentiate instruction and support their learners at various points on the learning continuum,” said Greg Collins, SVP of Platform at HMH. “By streamlining the user experience on Ed and introducing enhanced precision in assessment through the HMH Growth Measure, educators will be equipped with powerful data to make instructional decisions and an elegant user experience.”

New HMH Growth Measure features will enable increased precision for educators assessing where students are at the beginning of the new school year and throughout following months, including a new grade level equivalency indicator. Educators will be able to use this data to hone instruction, create groups, tailor assignments, and drive automated placement in HMH’s adaptive supplemental and intervention solutions. Leveraging data from the HMH Growth Measure, the Growth Report will now provide benchmark data at both the whole-class and individual-student levels, including an at-a-glance view that helps quickly identify the most at-risk students.

“The HMH Student Growth Measure is more than just another assessment,” said Maureen Ruether, Secondary Curriculum Coordinator for Springboro Schools. “With 25 years in education, it is refreshing to come across an ever-evolving tool that demystifies data collection for teachers. The feedback we are now able to provide parents and, more importantly, students is critical in meeting our achievement goals.”

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Sept. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Forrester (Nasdaq: FORR) introduces Forrester Decisions for Technology Executives to help technology executives adapt quickly to changing business needs. This service offers bold vision research, curated tools and frameworks, and hands-on guidance to enable firms to establish future fit strategies — the ability to quickly reconfigure business structures and capabilities to meet future customer and employee needs with adaptivity, creativity, and resilience. According to Forrester, future fit firms grow 2.7x faster than their peers.

Forrester Decisions for Technology Executives — part of the Forrester Decisions research product portfolio — is designed to empower leaders and their teams to move quickly, de-risk decisions, and save time and money when tackling their most pressing priorities, including:

• Demonstrating the business value of technology.
• Delivering a high-performing organization.
• Embedding privacy and cybersecurity in the company.
• Optimizing tech stack and services.
• Enabling an insights-driven business.
• Evaluating and experimenting with emerging tech.
• Inspiring and innovating with technology.

“Two factors are straining technology leaders: a pivot to enable remote workforces and increased pressure to shift to digital business models,” said Sharyn Leaver, SVP of research at Forrester. “Most businesses have proven unprepared to handle these shifts, with upwards of 20% of Fortune 500 companies projected to either dissolve assets or go out of business this year. Meanwhile, only 36% of firms plan to operate IT as usual. Forrester Decisions provides the tools and guidance needed to help technology leaders and their teams adapt quickly and position themselves for long-term growth.”

Additionally, Forrester Decisions offers a personalized digital experience to help users intuitively navigate and share content. Forrester Decisions for Technology Executives includes three core components to help technology leaders make progress on today’s priorities and plan for the future:

1. Bold vision research showcasing the latest insights, trends, predictions, and market forecasts to stay ahead of shifting customer and market dynamics. Examples include:

• Customer insights. Access to data snapshots that explore consumer and business buyer attitudes, behaviors, and technology adoption.
• Forrester’s signature research. Forrester’s take on the important trends impacting business today. This includes research such as Use A Future Fit Technology Strategy To Drive Business Value, which explores how technology executives should pursue a future fit technology strategy to improve the technology foundations and innovations their firms need to win, serve, and retain customers.

2. Curated tools and frameworks to tackle priorities with strategic models and plug-and-play templates, including:

• Strategic models. Each Forrester Decisions service contains a core set of strategic models designed to help leaders take action immediately on their most pressing priorities. For example, Forrester’s adaptive IT operating model factors in six components — customers, services, capabilities, structure, governance, and leadership — to help technology leaders fuel customer obsession and business growth.
• Peer benchmarks. Forrester Decisions provides clients with access to IT performance and operational benchmarks from more than 5,600 unique assessments across several regions and industries.
• Assessments. Technology executives can measure their state of future fitness to see if they have the right people, skills, and technology to achieve their objectives.

3. Hands-on guidance to apply Forrester research to specific needs:

• Guidance sessions. Executives can work with Forrester experts to apply frameworks, models, and data to specific contexts.
• Events. Learn about the full suite of Forrester Decisions’ technology services at Forrester’s annual events in North America, EMEA, and APAC. These include Technology & Innovation North America, taking place November 2–3, 2021, and Data Strategy & Insights, taking place November 18–19, 2021.

WINDSOR, Conn. and DENVER, Sept. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: SSNC) today announced that SS&C ALPS Advisors, an asset manager and wholly-owned subsidiary of SS&C, launched the ALPS Global Travel Beneficiaries ETF (JRNY).  

The Fund’s strategy provides diversified exposure to the global travel industry, which historically has outpaced global GDP growth for nine consecutive years between 2011 and 2019¹.

“SS&C ALPS Advisors continues to build a compelling suite of thematic strategies for ETF investors,” said Laton Spahr*, President of SS&C ALPS Advisors. “We believe global travel spending may improve as the global middle class expands and the desire to spend on experiences grows. Our new ETF may provide differentiated exposure to a potentially durable theme.”

The fund tracks the S-Network Global Travel Index, which identifies exchange-traded stocks of companies that are materially engaged in the global travel industry. The Fund’s portfolio invests in booking and rental agencies, airlines and airport services, hotels, casinos and cruise lines, along with travel-related companies identified through machine learning algorithms, such as luxury retail, entertainment, leisure, food and beverage, and payment processing vendors.

JRNY’s index utilizes a combination of quality and growth factors that may identify attractive investment opportunities in travel and tourism. A free cash flow ranking helps prioritize more persistent and sustainable investment characteristics, aiming to provide the highest quality and most comprehensive exposure to the global travel industry. 

“The artificial intelligence-driven screening process identifies additional companies that may benefit from the global travel ecosystem,” said Andy Hicks, Portfolio Manager, SS&C ALPS Advisors. “We believe the additional travel beneficiaries focus will diversify the fund’s global travel exposure.”
