<title>Gröna nyårslöften för en grönare huvudstad 2010</title>
<description>Stockholm &amp;auml;r utn&amp;auml;mnd till Europas milj&amp;ouml;huvudstad 2010. P&amp;aring; ny&amp;aring;rsafton n&amp;auml;r det nya &amp;aring;ret rings in ska Stockholmarna inspireras att avl&amp;auml;gga gr&amp;ouml;na ny&amp;aring;rsl&amp;ouml;ften f&amp;ouml;r 2010. Fem l&amp;ouml;ften &amp;auml;r framtagna som stockholmarna kan v&amp;auml;lja mellan. Varje l&amp;ouml;fte bygger p&amp;aring; klimatsmarta tips som varje individ l&amp;auml;tt kan genomf&amp;ouml;ra och d&amp;auml;r en kollektiv insats kan bidra till att g&amp;ouml;ra staden mer milj&amp;ouml;v&amp;auml;nlig, renare och gr&amp;ouml;nare. &amp;nbsp; Stockholm har som f&amp;ouml;rsta stad blivit utsedd till milj&amp;ouml;huvudstad (European Green Capital) av EU-kommissionen f&amp;ouml;r sitt ambiti&amp;ouml;sa milj&amp;ouml;arbete och f&amp;ouml;r stadens fortsatt h&amp;ouml;ga milj&amp;ouml;m&amp;aring;l.&amp;nbsp; Startskottet f&amp;ouml;r detta &amp;auml;r p&amp;aring; ny&amp;aring;rsafton och d&amp;aring; kommer firandet p&amp;aring; Skansen att placera milj&amp;ouml; i fokus.&amp;nbsp; Inf&amp;ouml;r ny&amp;aring;r har staden tagit fram fem ny&amp;aring;rsl&amp;ouml;ften f&amp;ouml;r att inspirera Stockholmarna att &amp;rdquo;lova gr&amp;ouml;nt&amp;rdquo; inf&amp;ouml;r 2010.

Exempelvis r&amp;auml;cker fem sorterade sopp&amp;aring;sar till att v&amp;auml;rma upp en hel tv&amp;aring;a p&amp;aring; s&amp;ouml;der en vanlig h&amp;ouml;stdag. &amp;nbsp; De fem l&amp;ouml;ftena bygger p&amp;aring; enkla klimatsmarta tips som alla l&amp;auml;tt kan lova men ocks&amp;aring; h&amp;aring;lla under 2010. 1) Jag lovar att inte skr&amp;auml;pa ner p&amp;aring; gatan 2) Jag lovar att vara r&amp;auml;dd om Stockholms vatten 3) Jag lovar att sopsortera&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; 4) Jag lovar att vara elsmart&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; 5) Jag lovar att oftare &amp;aring;ka kollektivt&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Ut&amp;ouml;ver de fem l&amp;ouml;ften som staden tagit fram kan Stockholmarna ocks&amp;aring; sms:a in egna l&amp;ouml;ften om hur de t&amp;auml;nker bete sig mer klimatsmart.

<title>An American newsman interviews Richard Lium</title>
<description>The article will be publishing shortly. It was a telephone interview today. Of cues I don&amp;rsquo;t remember exactly the questions and my answer. I liked the interview very much. I love USA and American people. Here's a rough summary. &amp;nbsp; Why are you working as a selling CEO for a Swedish sales company? Because I want to help my employees and my customers to be better on the personal- and economic level. I have helped 473 consulting company owners who are my clients to become multi-millionaires. I have also helped 7 of my employees to become multi-millionaires. Now when my company group will grow by hundreds, soon thousands, per cent a year will automatically many of my employees get really rich. All they need to do is to beat their day goal with 25% over time which is relatively simple. sell consultancy services are the most fun available in the world. I find it unbelievable that I get paid to do it. Why are you working with CSR and charity? I have worked with charities since I was 7 years old. I could not sit on the sofa with my arms crossed while we are destroying our nature and let other people starve. Doing business and then donate all to charity makes me happy. &amp;nbsp; American newspapers have called you the Savoir from the Nordic countries? Comments? It is true. What are you doing to increase your confidence? What do you do to achieve long-term goals? When my customers and my staff get rich strengthened my self-confidence. The same applies when I improve our world. I put a day goal for my self. When I meet the goal, improved my confidence considerably. If I reach the short-term goal will I reach the long-term goal automatically. I read books about positive thinking, management, marketing and sales every day. Life is a learning process. I always want to improve myself and my company.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; What is your corporate group of 10 years? The world's largest companies, measured in number of employees. You mean that you will have more employees than the U.S. Company called Manpower in only 10 years? Yes. It&amp;rsquo;s an easy goal to retch.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Good luck Thank you, Sir. &amp;nbsp; Hug Richard Lium &amp;nbsp;</description>

<title>UK Index Rates Corporate Social Responsibility Performance</title>
<description>UK-based Business in the Community launches its Corporate Responsibility Index, which benchmarks corporate social responsibility performance. SocialFunds.com -- In London yesterday, the &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www2.bitc.org.uk/programmes/key_initiatives/corporate_responsibility_index/index.html&quot;&gt;Corporate Responsibility Index&lt;/a&gt; was launched by &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www2.bitc.org.uk/index.html?CFID=175006&amp;amp;CFTOKEN=35122190&quot;&gt;Business in the Community&lt;/a&gt; (BITC), a U.K. consortium of 700 companies devoted to improving their positive impact on society. The index, which is the first of its kind, benchmarks the corporate social responsibility (CSR) performance of companies. This year&amp;rsquo;s index includes 122 companies that volunteered to be assessed. &amp;nbsp; The index rates a company on its CSR strategies and how well it has integrated those strategies into its overall business operations. The index also rates company management practices that impact the community, environment, marketplace, and workplace. We &amp;rsquo;ve got an index which is comprehensive, accessible in terms of what we measure, and the benchmarking exercise will provide a service to investors as well,&amp;quot; said David Varney, chair of BITC. Mr. Varney is also chair of mm02, an indexed telecommunications company. The companies that do corporate responsibility and do it well perform better economically, have a better sense of innovation, and they&amp;rsquo;re more in touch with the communities in which they live, said Mr. Varney. Instead of publicly disclosing companies&amp;rsquo; individual scores, the index lists companies alphabetically within five groups, or quintiles. First quintile companies earned scores over 82 percent, and fifth quintile companies all scored under 52 percent. The rest fell somewhere in the middle. The average score was 67.87 percent, which falls into the third quintile. Companies in the top quintile included &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.socialfunds.com/csr/profile.cgi/4243.html&quot;&gt;BP&lt;/a&gt; (ticker: BP), &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.socialfunds.com/csr/profile.cgi/579.html&quot;&gt;Dow&lt;/a&gt; (DOW), &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.socialfunds.com/csr/profile.cgi/1520.html&quot;&gt;Shell&lt;/a&gt; (RD), and &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.socialfunds.com/csr/profile.cgi/1822.html&quot;&gt;Unilever&lt;/a&gt; (UN). Dow topped the chemical sector with a score of 90.14 percent. The index rated Dow highly on its corporate strategy and environmental performance. Areas of improvement for Dow included formal community-based objectives and targets for board members. We are proud of our accomplishments to date but realize we still have much to do to reach the Triple Bottom Line objectives of economic prosperity, environmental stewardship, and corporate social responsibility, said Scott Noesen, Dow&amp;rsquo;s director of sustainable development. Companies ranked in the fifth quintile, such as the construction and building materials company &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.socialfunds.com/csr/profile.cgi/2555.html&quot;&gt;RMC&lt;/a&gt; (RMC.L) and media companies &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.socialfunds.com/csr/profile.cgi/2351.html&quot;&gt;British Sky Broadcasting&lt;/a&gt; (BSY.L) and &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.socialfunds.com/csr/profile.cgi/2552.html&quot;&gt;Reuters&lt;/a&gt; (RTR.L), expressed disappointment over their ratings. RMC noted that it reported on its international operations, as BITC&amp;rsquo;s questionnaire requested, while other companies in its sector reported only on their UK operations, according to RMC group environmental director Noel Morrin. Reuters received a &amp;quot;C&amp;quot; in management practice on the environment, which means that the company is beginning to measure progress. Reuters is an information company, and as such, CSR measures concerning the environment, health hazards, or global warming are not particularly relevant to us,&amp;quot; said Yvonne Diaz, Reuters&amp;rsquo;s director of public relations. &amp;quot;It&amp;rsquo;s absolutely unfair to rank us in areas that are not really relevant to us at all. Reuters received &amp;quot;A&amp;rsquo;s&amp;quot; in management practice in the community, in the marketplace, and in the workplace, which means that the company is measuring and reporting progress in these areas. Ms. Diaz pointed out that Reuters has trained approximately 3,200 non-staff journalists in about 87 countries. Many of those countries do not have freedom of speech. Reuters also ranked highly for its generous charitable donations, such as its sponsorship of fellowship programs at Oxford and Cardison in the U.K., Stanford and Missouri in the U.S., and Bordeaux in France, Ms. Diaz added. For the survey to be taken more seriously, it really has to allow for some flexibility for companies to be measured on things that are relevant to our business, Ms. Diaz told SocialFunds.com. BITC did allow companies the flexibility to choose seven of the eight social and environmental impact areas to report on. Reuters chose not to report on the impact area of global warming. BITC expects the index to serve as a tool for companies to compare their performance to best practice, as well as a tool for investor analysis. Toward this end, BITC is developing links with the &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.napf.co.uk/&quot;&gt;National Association of Pension Funds&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.abi.org.uk/&quot;&gt;Association of British Insurers&lt;/a&gt; as well as investment fund managers and financial analysts to encourage the use of the index for benchmarking. &amp;nbsp; Hug Richard Lium</description>

<title>Min personal uppmuntras till att driva välgörenhetsprojekt under arbetstid</title>
<description>Nedan s&amp;aring; ber&amp;auml;ttar v&amp;aring;r&amp;nbsp;Business Unit Manager&amp;nbsp;Mikaela Hedborg om sitt personliga PSR-projekt Local Hero. Kram Richard Lium Mikaelas ber&amp;auml;ttelse: &amp;quot;Jag t&amp;auml;nkte ber&amp;auml;tta lite kort om mitt personliga PSR. Jag har i tv&amp;aring; &amp;aring;r volont&amp;auml;rarbetat f&amp;ouml;r en organisation som heter Local Hero. Organisationen finansieras av CAN &amp;ndash; Centralf&amp;ouml;rbundet f&amp;ouml;r alkohol- och narkotikaupplysning, och v&amp;auml;nder sig till ungdomar i &amp;aring;ldern 13-19. Projektet &amp;auml;r byggt som en &amp;rdquo;workshop mot knark&amp;rdquo; och syftar till att f&amp;aring; ungdomar att l&amp;auml;ra sig mer om drogfr&amp;aring;gan, vad drogf&amp;ouml;rebyggande arbete inneb&amp;auml;r och hur man jobbar i projekt. &amp;nbsp;Med hj&amp;auml;lp av Workshopen kommer&amp;nbsp;ungdomarna att kunna genomf&amp;ouml;ra ett eget drogf&amp;ouml;rebyggande projekt. Local Hero bygger helt och h&amp;aring;llet p&amp;aring; ungdomars egna engagemang.&amp;nbsp;De best&amp;auml;mmer sj&amp;auml;lva hur stort eller litet projektet ska vara och vilka metoder de vill arbeta utefter. Mer information att hitta finns p&amp;aring; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.local-hero.nu/&quot;&gt;www.local-hero.nu&lt;/a&gt; samt &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.can.se/&quot;&gt;www.can.se&lt;/a&gt; Med hopp om att min ber&amp;auml;ttelse skall inspirera flera!&amp;nbsp; /Mikaela Hedborg&amp;quot;</description>

<title>Utvecklingsländerna får inte glömmas bort i lågkonjunkturen</title>
<description>P&amp;aring; s&amp;ouml;ndag b&amp;ouml;rjar Almedalsveckan och Hungerprojektet inleder p&amp;aring; plats en kampanj, som har som m&amp;aring;l att p&amp;aring;minna beslutsfattare, media och allm&amp;auml;nheten om utvecklingsl&amp;auml;ndernas situation. En viktig del i arbetet &amp;auml;r att informera om skillnaden mellan hunger och sv&amp;auml;lt* och hur man med sm&amp;aring; resurser kan skapa h&amp;aring;llbar utveckling. Hungerprojektet &amp;auml;r en global organisation som avskaffar hunger och fattigdom genom att v&amp;auml;cka lokal entrepren&amp;ouml;rsanda. Hungerprojektet i Sverige informerar om och samlar in medel till konkreta satsningar i 13 programl&amp;auml;nder. Genom att starta processer och hitta och t&amp;auml;nda eldsj&amp;auml;lar f&amp;ouml;r&amp;auml;ndrar Hungerprojektets program livssituationen f&amp;ouml;r 35 miljoner m&amp;auml;nniskor. F&amp;ouml;r f&amp;ouml;rsta g&amp;aring;ngen deltar nu Hungerprojektet under Almedalsveckan. - &amp;quot;Nu r&amp;aring;der ekonomiskt oroliga tider och det &amp;auml;r l&amp;auml;tt att fokusera p&amp;aring; situationen hemma. Men antalet m&amp;auml;nniskor som lever i kronisk hunger &amp;ouml;kar i v&amp;auml;rlden. V&amp;aring;ra program visar att m&amp;auml;nniskor som lever i hunger och fattigdom kan och vill driva sin egen utveckling, ist&amp;auml;llet f&amp;ouml;r att vara passiva mottagare, om de ges chansen.
