企业如何播种气候乐观并推动行动 Latest News

企业如何播种气候乐观并推动行动

(SeaPRwire) - 过去十年,我们痛苦地意识到,气候危机不再是遥远的威胁,而是现实的存在。它每天都影响着数百万人。去年,全球气温首次超过工业化前水平——这一里程碑提醒我们行动的紧迫性。现在,每一小部分温度都至关重要。我们能够在行动中争取到的每一年的时间都很重要。每一个承担责任的领导者都很重要。 如今,全球68%的宜家客户认为气候变化是最大的威胁,并担心我们的未来。2023年的一项调查收集的数据显示,各国之间的差异比你想象的要小。与此同时,只有6%的客户愿意为可持续的产品和解决方案支付更高的价格。不要误以为人们不在乎。事实是,大多数人根本无力支付更高的价格。他们期望政策制定者和像我们这样的公司找到经济实惠且可持续的解决方案。他们这样做是正确的。可持续性不能成为少数人的奢侈品。 作为一名企业高管和三个孩子的父亲,我认为参与引领向气候智能型未来的转变有三个理由。首先,根据今天的客观事实和认识,我们根本不能允许将其留给下一代。其次,很明显,我们全世界的客户和同事都期望我们带头。人们会放弃那些不这么做的品牌。人们的期望不是完美,而是真诚的意图和有影响力的行动。第三——好消息来了——这对企业来说是件好事。总的来说,气候智能意味着成本智能。浪费一直都很昂贵,而建立可持续商业模式的每一步都会对财务状况产生积极的影响。有些行动见效快,有些则需要时间。就像任何其他投资一样。 当我们经历当今气候影响带来的痛苦,并倾听人们对我们未来的合理担忧时,我们需要调动我们的乐观情绪。巴黎协定将全球变暖限制在1.5°C的目标确实没有实现。目前的轨迹确实是在2030年之前达到2.5-2.9°C的升温,如果这成为现实,将造成灾难性的后果。与此同时,我们也确实已经达到了人均碳排放峰值,并且很快就能将总排放量降低。 作为一家公司,我们致力于遵守巴黎协定——我们必须在2030年前将温室气体排放量减少一半,并在2050年前减少90%。这意味着在我们运营中的第一类排放、第二类间接排放和第三类排放(涵盖从原材料、生产和运输到客户使用和产品报废的全价值链排放)都要做到这一点。而且它确实有效。 自2016年(我们的基准年)以来,我们在所有排放范围内的气候足迹减少了30.1%,同时业务增长了23.7%。为了实现这一目标,自2009年以来,我们在场外可再生能源方面投资了超过42亿欧元。我们还正在投资约10亿欧元用于帮助提高回收基础设施的公司。效率措施帮助我们与五年前相比,能源账单减少了9700万欧元——或29%——。与此同时,我们已将整个业务的运营食品浪费量减少了一半。减少浪费,转向可再生能源,以及帮助我们的客户节省水、浪费、电力和金钱,所有这些都是长期视角的一部分,这种视角资源智能、气候智能,最终也是商业智能。 而且我们并不孤单。看看世界经济论坛的首席执行官气候领导者联盟,该联盟拥有130多家成员公司。在过去三年中,他们集体减少了所有三个范围内的绝对碳排放——减少了10%,同时业务增长了18%,超过了全球GDP的增长速度。这还不够,但这证明我们走在正确的道路上。就在几年前,我们许多领导者都是基于信念做出的决策。今天,我们确切地知道,我们的改变和投资将会得到回报——对人民、对地球和对企业都有利。 那么,问题是什么?我们的速度不够快,行动也不够。距离2030年还有五年时间,我们正处于气候行动最重要十年的一半路程上。包括大小公司在内的社会各界都需要对自身的影响采取行动。我们都需要通过了解自己的碳足迹并采取行动来整理好自己的家务事。我们需要在政策制定者和企业领导者之间建立更强大、更注重解决方案的合作,为气候智能型经济建立框架。我们需要加快变革——这场危机的时钟在滴答作响。我们还需要分享我们的成功经验。由于错误的原因,信任度降到了最低点。虚假环保宣传和蓄意误导信息是不可接受的,但来自最佳行为者的沉默则是一个更大的风险。而且,我们必须成为未来的领导者。我们所有人必须在集体变革中扮演更大的角色。 我们需要挑战阻碍行动的谬论。我们拥有实现净零排放所需的解决方案和资金。风险不仅在于错过新经济的好处,还在于遭受经济损失。世界经济论坛最近的一份报告显示,不采取行动的成本每年将达到10-15%。作为领导者,最大的风险在于知道自己本来可以做些什么,但却什么也没做。 做一个好企业就是好生意。它成本合理。它资源高效。而且它是气候智能型的。让我们承担责任,抓住机遇。想想看:我们是第一代能够参与创造一个对人和地球都有益的可持续未来的群体。这激励着我。我希望它也能激励你。 Jesper Brodin是Ingka集团(宜家)首席执行官,联合国全球契约共同主席,世界经济论坛气候联盟共同主席,以及B团队共同主席。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

联邦法官暂时阻止特朗普终止出生公民权的行政令 Latest News

联邦法官暂时阻止特朗普终止出生公民权的行政令

(SeaPRwire) - (西雅图) — 一名联邦法官周四暂时阻止了总统唐纳德·特朗普的行政命令,该命令终止了宪法保障的出生公民权,无论父母的移民身份如何。 美国地方法官约翰·C·考芬诺尔在华盛顿州、亚利桑那州、伊利诺伊州和俄勒冈州提起的案件中做出裁决,这些州认为第十四修正案和最高法院的案例法已经巩固了出生公民权。 此案是全国22个州和许多移民权利团体提起的五起诉讼之一。这些诉讼包括来自作为出生公民权的美国公民的总检察长的个人证词,以及那些担心他们的孩子无法成为美国公民的孕妇的名字。 该命令由特朗普在就职日签署,定于2月19日生效。根据其中一起诉讼,这可能会影响数十万在该国出生的人。根据西雅图提起的四州诉讼,2022年,非法居住在该国的母亲生育的公民子女约有25.5万名,而双亲均为非法居住者的公民子女约有15.3万名。 美国是大约30个实行出生公民权(jus soli原则或“属地主义”)的国家之一。大多数国家都在美洲,加拿大和墨西哥也在其中。 这些诉讼认为,美国宪法第十四修正案保证了在美国出生和归化的人的公民身份,各州一个世纪以来一直这样解释该修正案。 该修正案于1868年内战后获得批准,其中写道:“所有在美国出生或归化并在其管辖下的人,都是美国的公民,也是他们居住的州的公民。” 特朗普的命令断言,非公民的子女不受美国的管辖,并命令联邦机构不承认没有至少一名父母是公民的子女的公民身份。 1898年发生了一起涉及出生公民权的关键案件。最高法院裁定,在旧金山出生于中国移民的黄锦标是美国公民,因为他出生在这个国家。在一次出国旅行后,他面临着被联邦政府拒绝重新入境,理由是他根据《排华法案》并非公民。 但一些移民限制的倡导者认为,该案件显然适用于父母双方都是合法移民的子女。他们说,它是否适用于出生于非法居住在该国的父母的子女尚不清楚。 特朗普的行政命令促使总检察长分享了他们与出生公民权的个人联系。例如,康涅狄格州总检察长威廉·唐,他是美国出生公民权公民,也是美国首位当选的华裔总检察长,表示该诉讼对他来说是私人的。 “这个问题上没有合法的法律争议。但特朗普大错特错的事实并不能阻止他现在对像我这样的美国家庭造成严重的伤害,”唐本周表示。 旨在阻止行政命令的诉讼之一包括一名孕妇的案件,该孕妇被标识为“卡门”,她不是公民,但在美国居住超过15年,并且有一个可能导致永久居住身份的待决签证申请。 该诉讼称:“剥夺孩子公民身份这一‘无价之宝’是一种严重的伤害。”“它剥夺了他们应享有的美国社会的完全成员资格。”本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。 ```

奥斯卡该正视恐怖片了 Latest News

奥斯卡该正视恐怖片了

(SeaPRwire) - 当黛米·摩尔凭借在法国导演科拉莉·法热(Coralie Fargeat)的恐怖电影杰作中饰演年老明星伊丽莎白·斯帕克尔(Elisabeth Sparkle)获得1月5日金球奖时,她在获奖感言中分享道,这是她在好莱坞45多年的职业生涯中获得的第一个真正的奖项。那一刻成为当晚的亮点,摩尔谈到这部电影如何帮助她摆脱了令人沮丧的职业低谷。 [video id=VuBoMlZM autostart="viewable"] “我正处于低谷期,”她回忆道,“当这个不同寻常的剧本摆在我的面前时,宇宙告诉我,你还没有结束。” 但这位62岁演员的认可姗姗来迟,或许令人惊讶的是,她获得认可的角色竟然需要戴上怪诞的假肢,并以图形化的方式分娩出她年轻时的自己,考虑到恐怖片在颁奖季惨淡的获奖记录。 在奥斯卡诞生近100年来,总共有七部恐怖片(现在包括《物质》)获得最佳影片提名。只有1991年的——它也是一部侦探故事——获得了该奖项。法热还获得了最佳导演提名,使她成为今年该类别中唯一的女性提名者,并让她有机会成为第二位获得恐怖片导演奖项的导演(仅次于《沉默的羔羊》的乔纳森·戴米)。摩尔于1月23日获得了她有史以来的第一次提名,如果她获得小金人,她将成为第七位凭借恐怖片角色获得奥斯卡奖的演员。对于一个创作出一些电影中最令人难忘的表演的类型片来说,这是一个极其低的成功率。 而摩尔只是今年众多在各种恐怖片中都有出色表现的演员的代表。有休·格兰特在《》中饰演一个极其迷人的宗教狂热者,娜奥米·斯科特在《》中饰演一个与字面和比喻意义上的恶魔作斗争的流行歌星,以及贾斯蒂斯·史密斯在《》中饰演一个对邪教恐怖系列着迷害羞的少年。圣诞节上映的《》,对F·W·默瑙1922年无声吸血鬼经典作品的翻拍,迅速跻身有史以来票房最高的50部恐怖片之列,影评人对主演的表演赞赏有加。尽管格兰特获得了金球奖提名,但其他人却被忽视了,除了大部分针对类型片或独立电影的奖项。 血腥而可怕的《物质》从未被认为是主流成功的必然之选。但戛纳电影节的热议、关于老年女性的信息引起了广泛共鸣,以及1750万美元预算获得7600万美元票房,所有这些都证明了恐怖片对有才华的演员来说是多么强大的载体。尽管如此,即使摩尔最终在3月2日登上领奖台,这也不能改变这样一个事实:从历史上看,学院一直在冷落一些最值得称赞的表演。仅举过去十年中的一些例子:《》中的、《》中的、《》中的、《》中的。 “归根结底,我认为颁奖典礼的价值在于展示电影的创新,”奥尤洛在2020年接受采访时谈到对恐怖片的明显偏见时说。“因此,歧视一个类型片感觉真的很愚蠢。” 广受好评的恐怖电影,如《》、《》、《》、《》和《》,过去能够突破障碍,至少获得一些奥斯卡五大奖项的提名。过去该类型片中的表演奖项获得者包括凯西·贝茨凭借1990年的《》,露丝·戈登凭借1968年的《》,弗雷德里克·马奇凭借1931年的《化身博士》,以及《沉默的羔羊》的和奖项。但之后你必须跳跃20年到,她以首席芭蕾舞演员的身份在2010年的《》中获得了最近一次恐怖片表演奥斯卡奖。 在过去的15年里,是唯一一位甚至获得提名的恐怖片演员。而且电影是否已经成为恐怖片竞争者?奥斯卡荣誉似乎只保留给那些被认为以某种方式超越了该类型片(本身就是一个相当主观的类别)的电影。正如所说,“我认为这是一部关于信仰之谜的电影……我并没有打算制作一部恐怖片。” 最近,即使像2014年的《》和埃格斯的2016年突破性作品《》开始催生“高级恐怖片”一词——一个主观描述词,用于描述一部恐怖片,据说其艺术价值高于该类型片更主流的作品——获奖的几率似乎下降了。 尽管其不可否认的文化影响力、以及更高的关注度,但恐怖片显然仍然被许多学院投票者视为低于标准或低俗的,至少与经常获得奖项荣誉的时代剧和传记片相比是如此。如果学院不奖励像摩尔这样愿意冒险尝试恐怖片的演员,它就会暗中阻止她在金球奖颁奖典礼上的讲话中所描述的“神奇、大胆、勇敢、标新立异、绝对疯狂”的表演,而这些表演来自业内一些最优秀的名字。令人害怕的想法,不是吗?本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

英国泰勒·斯威夫特主题舞蹈课凶杀案:杀害三名女孩的少年面临判决

英国泰勒·斯威夫特主题舞蹈课凶杀案:杀害三名女孩的少年面临判决 “`

(SeaPRwire) - 伦敦(美联社)——一名沉迷暴力的青少年因在以泰勒·斯威夫特为主题的暑期舞蹈课上刺死三名年轻女孩而面临数十年的监禁。 18岁的阿克塞尔·鲁达库巴纳将于周四在英格兰西北部的利物浦皇冠法院接受量刑听证会,这起7月29日的袭击事件震惊了索斯波特海滨小镇,也震惊了全国,并引发了街头暴力和深刻反思。 这起犯罪事件引发了反移民骚乱,并促使政府重新考虑其对恐怖主义的定义、其应对网络激进化的方法以及公布犯罪嫌疑人信息的方式。 鲁达库巴纳被指控犯有三项谋杀罪、十项对受伤人员的谋杀未遂罪,以及额外指控的持有刀具、蓖麻毒素和基地组织手册罪。他于周一意外地对所有指控表示认罪——这使受害者家属免于漫长的审判,但也可能剥夺了他们获得答案的机会。 检察官计划在周四的听证会上详细阐述他们对鲁达库巴纳的指控,受害者的亲属将在法庭上旁听。 袭击事件发生在暑假的第一天,当时二十多名小女孩正在参加一个学习瑜伽并伴着泰勒·斯威夫特歌曲跳舞的课程。本应充满欢乐的一天变成了恐怖和心碎,鲁达库巴纳持刀闯入,开始刺伤女孩们和他们的老师。 他杀害了9岁的爱丽丝·达席尔瓦·阿吉亚尔、7岁的埃尔西·多特·斯坦科姆和6岁的贝贝·金。另外八名年龄在7岁到13岁之间的女孩受伤,还有指导老师莱安·卢卡斯和在隔壁经营生意的约翰·海耶斯也受伤,后者介入事件。 在英格兰西北部小镇发生的这起杀戮事件在全国范围内引发了数日的反移民暴力活动,此前极右翼活动家利用不准确的报道称袭击者是一名最近抵达英国的寻求庇护者。一些人认为这起犯罪事件是一起圣战袭击,并声称警方和政府隐瞒了信息。 鲁达库巴纳出生在威尔士加的夫,父母是来自卢旺达的基督教徒,调查人员未能确定他的动机。警方在他的设备上发现了关于纳粹德国、卢旺达种族灭绝和汽车炸弹等主题的文件。 在袭击发生前的几年里,他因暴力倾向和行为而被多次举报给多个机构。内政大臣伊维特·库珀周二告诉议员们,鲁达库巴纳“曾因在学校对另一名儿童实施暴力袭击而被定罪”,并多次与儿童社会服务机构、心理健康服务机构和警方接触,警方因其行为在2019年至2022年期间五次被叫到他家。在他13岁和14岁时,他被三次转介给政府的反极端主义项目“预防计划”。 所有这些机构都未能发现他构成的危险。 政府已宣布此案为警钟。首相基尔·斯塔默表示,这必须导致国家保护公民的方式发生“根本性变化”,并宣布对允许鲁达库巴纳使用从亚马逊订购的刀子进行袭击的失误进行公开调查。 他说,可能需要更新法律来打击来自暴力个人的“新的威胁”,这些人的动机混合在一起,对恐怖主义的传统定义——“由独行侠、不适应者、卧室里的年轻人实施的极端暴力行为”——提出了挑战。 英国检察署捍卫了在鲁达库巴纳出庭前不披露细节的决定,称“提前发布这些信息将危及审判”。英国藐视法庭法限制了在审判前可以报道的内容,以防止陪审团产生偏见。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。 ```

美国的出生公民权与世界其他地区相比如何? Latest News

美国的出生公民权与世界其他地区相比如何?

(SeaPRwire) - 谁有资格成为美国人?自从1868年宪法第十四修正案通过以来,这个问题的答案已经根深蒂固地存在于美国人的心中:任何在美国领土出生的人都是美国公民。 直到唐纳德·特朗普于2025年1月20日——他第二任总统就职的第一天——发布了一项命令,这项命令将出生公民权的获得条件设定为父母的合法身份,这将影响到每年数十万出生于移民家庭的儿童。该命令立即被认为违宪,预计在生效前将被法院维持甚至阻止。 但是,限制公民资格的想法到底有多激进呢?美国是大约30个遵循普遍不受限制的jus soli(意为“属地主义”)原则的国家之一。这使得每年数百万人在不考虑其父母身份的情况下自动成为美国公民。根据特朗普的命令,该命令将于2月19日生效,至少有一位父母必须是公民或合法永久居民,其在美国出生的子女才能成为公民。 考虑到其他旨在加强更严格的移民限制的新命令,至少有人反对特朗普政府,认为拟议的出生公民权修正案中受影响的儿童面临被驱逐出境或拘留的风险,可能会失去获得公共福利的机会,甚至可能被剥夺…… 没有出生公民权意味着什么? 在世界范围内,出生公民权并非普遍现象。加拿大和墨西哥拥有不受限制的出生公民权,大多数拉丁美洲国家也是如此。但在亚洲、欧洲和非洲,几乎没有国家拥有这种权利——至少没有像特朗普提议的那样设置限制。 大多数出生公民权受限的国家都有一些条件,这些条件大体上取决于孩子的至少一位父母的合法居住身份、孩子的居住地或两者兼而有之。例如,在澳大利亚,在那里出生的孩子可以成为公民,如果至少有一位父母是澳大利亚公民或永久居民,或者如果孩子在出生后十年内居住在澳大利亚。 在不遵循jus soli的国家,它们通常依赖于jus sanguinis(意为“血统主义”)。像新加坡和中国这样的国家要求至少有一位父母是公民,才能让他们的孩子成为公民。孩子是否在该国出生并不重要——公民身份仍然遵循其父母的国籍。美国,像许多其他遵循jus soli的国家一样,也对在美国父母在海外所生的子女适用jus sanguinis。 如果出生公民权的做法在地域上看起来有所偏向——它在西半球更为常见——社会学家约翰·斯克伦蒂告诉……这可能是因为对许多国家来说,它是一种殖民工具,用来迅速超过当地人口的数量。在美国,第十四修正案是为了……被解放奴隶的法律地位而通过的。 其他国家以前是否改变过它们的出生公民权法律? 近年来,包括巴基斯坦、多米尼加共和国和爱尔兰在内的几个国家修改了其公民法律,以限制或撤销出生公民权。 伊斯兰堡高等法院审理了2022年一名在巴基斯坦出生的阿富汗人的请愿书,尽管巴基斯坦有出生公民权,但他仍未获得公民身份。法院……驳回了请愿人的请求,但在2024年11月,巴基斯坦……这将意味着在巴基斯坦出生的人,要成为公民,必须有一位父母是公民或永久居民,或者在出生后十年内居住在巴基斯坦。这一变化将影响……那些可能缺乏在巴基斯坦居住所需文件的人。 最严重的改变之一发生在多米尼加共和国,该国政府于2013年废除了出生公民权,裁定1929年后出生且至少没有一位父母是多米尼加血统的人将被视为非法滞留在该国或“过境”。据……这项限制剥夺了超过20万移民儿童的国籍,其中许多人是海地裔。 2004年,爱尔兰成为欧洲最后一个终止不受限制的出生公民权的国家,当时在一次……中,79%的投票者选择修正其宪法,要求至少有一位父母是爱尔兰或英国公民、永久居民或合法临时居民(不包括学生和寻求庇护者)。这一变化是在一次备受瞩目的“……”事件被发现后提出的,当时两名居住在英国的中国公民前往贝尔法斯特分娩,这(由于爱尔兰与英国和欧盟之间独特的关系)使他们获得了所谓的“后门”途径,作为欧盟公民的受抚养子女的父母,获得了在英国的永久居留权。 2018年,也就是特朗普早些时候讨论结束美国出生公民权的时候,一项……爱尔兰的提案获得了支持,此前一起备受关注的案件中,一名9岁的爱尔兰出生男孩及其中国母亲面临被驱逐出境。当时的一次……发现71%的爱尔兰受访者希望恢复出生公民权。然而,虽然该男孩最终……免于政府的驱逐,但恢复出生公民权的法案……,尽管爱尔兰工党继续……这样的改变。 ——Chad de Guzman 参与了报道。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

SASOL LIMITED:截至2024年12月31日止六个月的产量和销售指标 Finance

SASOL LIMITED:截至2024年12月31日止六个月的产量和销售指标

(SeaPRwire) - 约翰内斯堡, 2025年1月23日 — Sasol已在其公司网站的投资者中心栏目发布了截至2024年12月31日六个月的产量和销售业绩指标:。 Sasol于2024年12月做出了最终投资决定 (FID),实施一项除石方案以提高供应给塞孔达运营公司 (SO) 的煤炭质量,预计该方案将于2026财年上半年投入运行,早于此前公布的日期。 莫桑比克的内乱影响了中央加工厂 (CPF),导致2024年12月产量下降。CPF的状况有所改善,目前该工厂已满负荷运行,尽管近期风险依然很高。 2025年1月4日,Natref炼油厂发生火灾,导致原油蒸馏装置周围的辅助管道和基础设施受损。我们的团队迅速采取行动控制了火势,未造成人员伤亡。预计维修工作将于2025年2月底前完成,并且正在实施计划,包括尽可能采购产品以解决供应短缺问题。 在SO,我们遇到了运营挑战,主要与持续的煤炭质量问题以及由此对气化器和设备可用性的影响有关。实施除石方案和持续的设备可靠性改进计划预计将提高未来的产量。 与2024财年上半年相比,国际化学品收入有所增长,但整体商业环境仍然充满挑战。美国东部裂解装置停机继续对当季的销售量造成负面影响。但是,该装置已于2024年11月成功启动。由于积极主动的管理举措,整体盈利能力有所提高。 采矿和天然气业务的市场预期保持不变,由于上述挑战,SO和Natref的年度产量展望被下调。因此,我们预计非洲燃料和化学品的销售量将与2024财年基本持平。尽管本季度面临运营挑战,但我们仍致力于执行关键的自救措施,以提高业绩并应对我们面临的挑战。 ORYX产量预期被上调。 国际化学品的销售量预期被下调至比2024财年低4% - 8%,这是由于需求低于预期和意外的运营中断造成的。但是,通过有效的成本管理措施,以及与上一时期相比有所改善的利润率,已经减轻了财务影响。 垂询详情,请联系:Sasol投资者关系部,Tiffany Sydow,投资者关系副总裁电话:+27 (0) 71 673 1929 来源 Sasol Limited本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

China Medical System(00867)Obtained Class 1 Innovative Drug Long-acting Anti-IL-4Rα Monoclonal Antibody MG-K10

SHENZHEN, Jan 24, 2025 – (ACN Newswire) – China Medical System Holdings Limited (the “Company”, together with its subsidiaries, the “Group” or “CMS”) is pleased to announce that on 24 January 2025, the Group through subsidiaries of the Company entered into a Collaboration Agreement with Hunan Mabgeek Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (“Mabgeek Biotechnology”) and its subsidiary for Class 1 innovative drug anti-IL-4Rα humanized monoclonal antibody injection MG-K10 (“MG-K10” or the “Product”). The Group has obtained the co-development right as specifically agreed upon in the Agreement and exclusive commercialization right to the Product in Mainland China, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Macao Special Administrative Region, Taiwan Region and Singapore (the “Territory”); Mabgeek Biotechnology will support the commercialization activities and is responsible for the sale and supply of the Product. The collaboration term is perpetual. IL-4Rα is considered a key target for the treatment of type 2 inflammatory diseases, such as atopic dermatitis (AD), asthma, prurigo nodularis, etc. Anti-IL-4Rα monoclonal antibodies are among the best-selling biologics in this field. MG-K10 is an innovative long-acting anti-IL-4Rα humanized monoclonal antibody that simultaneously blocks the signaling of key type 2 inflammatory cytokines IL-4 and IL-13. Following Fc mutation, MG-K10 allows long dosing interval owing to its prolonged half-life, and it is expected to be the first long-acting anti-IL-4Rα monoclonal antibody marketed in China. Currently marketed anti-IL-4Rα drugs require dosing every two weeks, whereas MG-K10 only requires dosing every four weeks, demonstrating good efficacy and safety. MG-K10 has the potential to be the Best-in-Class (BIC). This collaboration marks another significant milestone for Dermavon (formerly known as CMS Skinhealth)’s layout in the dermatology field. MG-K10 will enrich the global differentiated innovative pipeline of Dermavon, and will strongly synergize with the existing product portfolio, such as marketed innovative drug ILUMETRI (tildrakizumab injection), marketed exclusive drug Hirudoid (mucopolysaccharide polysulfate cream) and dermatology-grade skincare products of Heling soothing product series (developed for AD patients), and innovative pipeline drugs ruxolitinib cream (for the topical treatment of mild to moderate AD and non-segmental vitiligo) and povorcitinib (for the treatment of non-segmental vitiligo, hidradenitis suppurativa, prurigo nodularis and chronic spontaneous urticaria), etc. Leveraging its proven clinical development and commercialization capabilities, the Group will fully cooperate with Mabgeek Biotechnology to promote the approval of MG-K10 in China, bringing a new treatment option with lower dosing frequency, good efficacy and safety to patients with type 2 inflammatory diseases in China. More information about MG-K10 MG-K10 is a Class 1 innovative drug anti-IL-4Rα humanized monoclonal antibody injection that used for the treatment of type 2 inflammatory diseases, including AD, asthma, prurigo nodularis, allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, eosinophilic esophagitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and so on. It holds substance patents in specific countries/regions within the Territory. MG-K10 has entered Phase III clinical trials in China for AD, asthma, and prurigo nodularis. In the completed Phase II clinical trials for adult moderate-to-severe AD and moderate-to-severe asthma, MG-K10 has demonstrated good efficacy and safety[1-2]. Additionally, MG-K10 has obtained IND approval for eosinophilic esophagitis, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, and seasonal allergic rhinitis in China. According to Frost & Sullivan, the global market for treatments targeting IL-4Rα is expected to reach US$28.7 billion by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.8% from 2020 to 2030. In China, the market is projected to reach US$4.08 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of 76.8% from 2020 to 2030. About AD indication MG-K10’s first indication, AD, is a chronic inflammatory skin condition characterized by severe itching. It is the most burdensome non-fatal skin disease globally, with at least 230 million people affected worldwide[3]. AD is also a prevalent and high-burden chronic disease in China, with the prevalence showing an upward trend[3]. According to the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019, the number of AD patients in China increased by 25.65% from 1990 to 2019[3]. It is estimated that there are approximately 36.09 million AD patients in China[3], with approximately 9.625 million suffering from moderate-to-severe AD[4]. Current treatment options for AD primarily include topical and systemic treatments. For moderate-to-severe AD, topical medications are often insufficient to achieve disease control, necessitating the initiation of systemic treatments. However, due to the limitations in efficacy and safety of traditional systemic therapies for AD, moderate-to-severe AD patients often experience delays in systemic treatment initiation, poor compliance, and suboptimal disease control, leaving a significant unmet need in clinical practice[3]. MG-K10, with its extended dosing interval of once every four weeks, is expected to improve patient adherence and provide a new, effective, and safe systemic treatment option for patients with moderate-to-severe AD. About Mabgeek Biotechnology Mabgeek Biotechnology was founded in 2016 and has always adhered to the research and development concept of “innovation, efficiency and safety”, focusing on the fields of allergic inflammatory diseases and autoimmune diseases.

New York, NY – January 24, 2025 – (SeaPRwire) – B2TRADER, owned by B2Broker, the innovative multi-asset and multi-market trading platform, has received another upgrade! B2TRADER 2.2 is here with new features that elevate trading efficiency and offer more control. This release includes new C-Book order routing and improved pricing flexibility for brokers. Additionally, administrators can configure multiple liquidity providers for any asset type. The platform also updates its risk management tools and iOS and Android mobile applications, ensuring a smoother and more intuitive trading experience for all users. Let’s explore these updates in more detail. C-Book Order Routing: New Approach for Better Pricing The new upgrade introduces C-Book routing, a new feature that adds to the existing A and B Books. The C-Book provides crypto and CFD brokers with better control over order execution and improves risk management tools.

Moreover, the admin interface can provide much more detailed reports on all orders, whether processed internally or externally. The C-Book allows brokers to manage risks more efficiently, improve the financial performance of their operations, and reduce the costs of using liquidity providers. Customisable Commission and Pricing Setting B2TRADER’s functionality has been significantly expanded with customisable price markups. Brokers can now set commissions, markups, or both to suit different pricing plans. This allows for more personalised pricing strategies for diverse client and business needs. Moreover, flexible price streams allow brokers to manage market access for selected traders or groups, providing elevated flexibility in configuring market proposals. Multi Liquidity Providers Connections for Better Risk Management Brokers can now select from various liquidity providers for price quotes and order execution. Access to multiple providers ensures more competitive pricing, faster transactions, and greater market depth. Additionally, this feature promotes risk diversification. If one liquidity source faces issues, connections with other providers remain stable, highlighting consistent trading operations. Advanced Order Types: Take Profit, Stop Loss, and Trailing Stops In this version, B2TRADER introduces top conditional order types like Take-Profit, Stop-Loss, and Trailing Stops. These orders let traders manage their market exits, set limits for profits and losses, and handle risks more effectively, even when they are not closely watching the market. They are easy to implement, suit traders of all skill levels, and work well with multiple trading strategies. Boosted Mobile Trading Experience on Android and iOS The mobile application was also significantly improved, especially in accessibility. It allows traders to manage their accounts, monitor orders, and execute trades smoothly from Android and iOS devices. This ensures traders never miss an opportunity to make money, regardless of where they are. Here are the highlights of this upgraded feature. Intuitive User Experience The mobile app integrates all essential functionalities, replicating the desktop experience to boost user satisfaction. Flexible Account Management Anytime, Anywhere With the new mobile app update, traders can control their portfolios and positions from any location at any time with capabilities similar to those of the desktop version.

ZeroPath Corp. Launches Next-Generation Code Security Platform Powered by Artificial Intelligence ACN Newswire

ZeroPath Corp. Launches Next-Generation Code Security Platform Powered by Artificial Intelligence

SAN FRANCISCO, CA, Jan 23, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - ZeroPath Corp., a Y Combinator-backed cybersecurity company, today announced the public launch of its LLM-driven code security platform. The company was previously noted for using its platform to find critical zero-day vulnerabilities in major open-source projects. Alongside the launch, the company also announced the completion of its seed funding round led by SurgePoint Capital, with Y Combinator and angel investor Paul Graham both participating.ZeroPath's security testing platform, among the first of its kind, attempts to combine deep program analysis with large language models to detect more complex security vulnerabilities. The system has previously demonstrated remarkable success in identifying critical security flaws in large open-source repositories, including remote code execution vulnerabilities, authorization bypasses, and business logic flaws."Traditional security tools often rely on pattern matching and predefined rules, which can miss complex vulnerabilities that don't fit known patterns," said Raphael Karger, CTO of ZeroPath. "Our platform's ability to understand context and business logic allows it to identify sophisticated security issues that would typically require manual code review by expert security researchers."Unusual for the application security industry, the platform does not rely on rule-based detection of code security problems; instead, it uses large language models to scan large swaths of code and validate potential vulnerabilities before reporting them. The company's approach has proven particularly effective in discovering business logic flaws and authentication vulnerabilities that traditionally require extensive manual review to identify. The approach has also been touted for its ability to provide a lower false positive rate than traditional static analysis tools.For more information about ZeroPath's AI-powered security platform, visit https://www.zeropath.comAbout ZeroPath Corp.:ZeroPath Corp. is a San Francisco-based cybersecurity company that combines artificial intelligence with deep program analysis to detect complex security vulnerabilities.

World’s First Successful Transmission of Huge Volume Mission Data Using 1.5 micron Optical Inter-Satellite Communication JCN Newswire

World’s First Successful Transmission of Huge Volume Mission Data Using 1.5 micron Optical Inter-Satellite Communication

TOKYO, Jan 24, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, and NEC Corporation, the prime contractor of the laser-communication terminals for the Laser Utilizing Communication System (LUCAS)(1), performed the world's fastest optical communication (wavelength band: 1.5 μm, communication speed: 1.8 Gbps) using LUCAS between the Advanced Land Observing Satellite-4 "DAICHI-4" (ALOS-4)(2) and the Optical Data Relay Satellite in geostationary orbit at a distance of about 40,000 km, and successfully completed the first transmission of observation data to a ground station through the geostationary satellite.Figure 1: Observation image of "DAICHI-4" transmitted by LUCAS. Observed in the initial calibration and validation phase. Downlinked a zonal range of observation data at once, successfully acquired a large amount of data immediately, which would typically require division into multiple paths for direct transmission to a ground station. (Above images, processed with pseudo-color, such as the sea ice of the Arctic Ocean are enlarged to highlight a specific portion of observation area). ©JAXAIn October 2024, JAXA and NEC successfully achieved the optical inter-satellite communication(3) between "DAICHI-4" equipped with the Optical Leo Laser Communication Terminal (OLLCT) dedicated to an Earth observation satellite and the Optical Data Relay Satellite equipped with the Optical Geo Laser Communication Terminal (OGLCT) dedicated to a geostationary satellite, and we have continued technical demonstrations. As a result, we successfully transmitted "DAICHI-4" observation data using optical communication. The success of this data transmission utilizing LUCAS enables immediate downlinking of a large amount of observation data which is difficult to achieve through direct communication to ground stations in areas lacking accessible ground stations. Figure 1 shows the first image downlinked through LUCAS, generated from a large amount of mission data observed by "DAICHI-4" over approximately 30 minutes, traversing the Arctic, Europe, and the African continent. While direct transmission to ground stations requires multiple transmissions, the use of LUCAS narrowed the acquisition of observation data of vast areas to a single transmission.OGLCT: Laser-communication terminal aboard the GEO (Geostationary) satellite(Optical inter-satellite communication instrument for GEO satellite)Above photographs show only the optical components of the laser communication terminals mounted on the exterior of the satellites.The optical component of OLLCT is smaller than that of OGLCT, resulting in improved mountability due to its reduced size.Fig. 2: Overview of LUCAS ©JAXA/NECLaser light has a bandwidth that is orders of magnitude wider than that of radio waves (5 THz in the 1.5 μm wavelength band), allowing it to transmit more information than radio waves. In addition, by using highly focused beams, there is little risk of interference or eavesdropping. The use of laser light is essential for achieving high-speed, high-capacity communications in space in the future. In LUCAS, optical communication has been adopted in the data relay system onboard the geostationary satellite. By using optical communication between the Earth observation satellite and the geostationary satellite, LUCAS enables data transmission from the Earth observation satellite at "1.8 Gbps", that is a speed 7.5 times faster than the "240 Mbps" transmission rate of the Data Relay Test Satellite "KODAMA" (DRTS)(4) using previous generation radio waves. (Figure 3)Figure 3: LUCAS enables high-speed/large-capacity data transmission at a speed of 1.8 Gbps via optical communication © JAXA/NECThere is a distance of about 40,000 km between "DAICHI-4" in low orbit and the Optical Data Relay Satellite in geostationary orbit. The acquisition and communication of the counterpart satellite, which is moving at high speeds, requires precise optical systems and their control technology. Specifically, while the Optical Data Relay Satellite in geostationary orbit at an altitude of about 36,000 km moves at about 3.1 km/second and the Earth observation satellite in low orbit circles at about 7.6 km/second, it is essential to continuously direct the laser beam, which expands only about 500 m, accurately to the counterpart satellite even at a distance of 40,000 km. To achieve this, high-output optical amplification technology for the laser light and acquisition and tracking technology to direct the laser light towards the counterpart satellite are required.In this project, NEC developed the overall system design of LUCAS and both the laser communication terminals for the Optical Data Relay Satellite and the Earth observation satellite, the key components of LUCAS(5). The use of the 1.5 μm band, which is the hallmark of LUCAS, was based on NEC’s development achievements in terrestrial and underwater optical fiber communication systems and was also developed in anticipation of integration with this system in the future. Although the 1.5 μm band is relatively deficient in power efficiency, the recent success in long-distance high-speed transmission between the geostationary satellite and the low earth orbit satellite is expected to accelerate its utilization in space-based optical communication."DAICHI-4" also carries SPAISE3 (Space-based Automatic Identification System Experiment3)(6) developed by JAXA and NEC, which particularly observes vessels in crowded maritime areas. Also for the observation data of SPAISE3, the optical communication makes it possible to transmit a large amount of data in real time. Like this, high-speed data communication using LUCAS contributes to the utilization and promotion(7) of not only SAR data but also various data of other satellites, thereby playing a role as a social infrastructure that protects people's lives and safety.JAXA and NEC have been engaging in optical communication in space since the 1990s. Optical communication in space is also identified as a technology of strategic importance in the Space Technology Strategy formulated by the Japanese government for fiscal year 2023. JAXA has advanced research and development in optical communication as a solution to the increasing capacity and immediacy requirements of data transmission for future Earth observation satellites. NEC has been responsible for designing the LUCAS system, manufacturing laser communication terminals, supporting satellite system tests, and managing the initial functional verification operations of satellite systems. Building on this success, we will continue to contribute to the advancement of Japan's space development by accelerating the technological development of the optical inter-satellite communication in collaboration with related organizations and partners.(1) LUCAS: Laser Utilizing Communication System, developed and being operated by JAXA, is a system that enables data relay between an Earth observation satellite (low orbit satellite) and an optical data relay satellite (geostationary satellite) through optical communication in space using invisible laser light with a wavelength of 1.5 µm. www.satnavi.jaxa.jp/ja/project/lucas/ (Japanese Only)(2) Earth observation satellite developed and being operated by JAXA.
