Meet Amgen Scholars Alumni Bryan Peacker

I’ve always been curious. When I was 8, I moved from Lima, Peru to the US, and I saw science everywhere—and not just in my new school. When I went with my dad to the eye doctor one day, I remember reading educational pamphlets that lined the wall. I was just fascinated by the drawings and diagrams of eyes and eye diseases. That was a defining experience.

Changing Sustainability Norms in the World's Forests

“What we are doing to the forests of the world is but a mirror reflection of what we are doing to ourselves and to one another.” With these words, Chris Maser, author of Forest Primeval: The Natural History of an Ancient Forest, and an old friend of mine, sums up the case for sustainable forestry. Forests are the lungs of the earth, home to a fascinating diversity of flora and fauna, the progenitor of natural medicines, and the source of fire and building materials upon which so much of civilization has depended. Over the past few decades, however, it has become clear that the earth’s forests cannot continue to be treated simply as resources for the taking, and that we must become active stewards of the forests to ensure their longevity. Allow me to take you on a short journey back.

Three Drivers for Corporate Knights’ Global 100

Each year our friends at Corporate Knights pull together a list of the 100 most sustainable corporations in the world. They base their assessment on an extensive analysis of the companies they study that includes a review of numerous facts and figures. CSRHub’s aggregation engine strives to determine a consensus of the perceived sustainability performance for the 17,000 companies we track by combining input from 500 different sources. It is satisfying to see that Corporate Knights’ more direct measurement and analysis approach aligns well with our methodology. Every one of the 100 companies on the Global 100 list had above average CSRHub ratings and the average overall rank was just below the 90th percentile.
