The details of the partnership were presented and P&G’s “Ecology of Business” media forum. The Second Life of Plastic The partnership’s key project will be the social and environmental campaign ‘The Second Life of Plastic’. From May through September 2020, every P&G item bought in the Magnit stores as part of the campaign will give the buyer a vote for a Russian city. Based on the results of the open vote on magnit.ru, children’s playgrounds made of recycled plastic will be built in the top four cities. Moreover, 80 kiosks collecting plastic for recycling will be installed in Magnit stores in Moscow and Krasnodar. Magnit and P&G’s recycling kiosk chain will be the largest in Russia. Sotirios Marinidis, Head of P&G in Eastern Europe: “Brands play a significant role in promoting responsible consumption. The result of this work largely depends on the scale and effect of the partnership and alliances. We started working with Magnit from the first day of its existence, 25 years ago. It’s important for us to continue our cooperation and lead at the new stage of the industry’s development, with our ambitious goals to develop responsible consumption.’ Vladimir Sorokin, Magnit Deputy CEO and Commercial Director: “We see the Russian consumers’ growing concern about the environment; it’s one of the most visible trends of the recent years. Using our chain’s geographic presence, we would like to give people in Russia more opportunities for responsible consumption and tell them that anyone can be part of the solution to the plastic problem. I’m very pleased that Magnit is doing this together with P&G, our close partner of many years, which shares our sustainable development values.” The project implies a large-scale marketing campaign endorsed by the famous Russian singer and actor Dima Bilan. With direct participation of his Instagram followers, the performer will create Russia’s first musical eco-manifest. The most active participants of the online competition will get to perform the resulting piece with Bilan at one of his shows. Dima Bilan, singer and actor: “It’s clear that our generation is facing the final countdown to some irreversible changes in climate and environment. It’s important that each of us not just watch it but act. The first simple step is responsible consumption. It’s essential that we change our habits: recycle, save water and power, and choose products of environmentally responsible companies. Together we can save our planet.” ‘Make a Turning Point: Do Laundry and Dishes at 30̊’ Another line of P&G and Magnit’s partnership will be their initiative with WWF Russia, the ‘Turning Point’, supporting the international Earth Hour movement. Joining forces, P&G, Magnit and WWF Russia will urge Russians to do laundry and dishes at lower temperatures. This step is aimed at reducing water and power consumption and lowering greenhouse gas emissions. Research shows that lowering the washing temperature from 40 to 30 degrees reduces power consumption by 57% and CO2 emissions, by 35%1. P&G’s detergents maintain their high performance even in cold water. During the ‘Turning Point’ campaign, 1 rouble of every item of Ariel, Fairy or Lenor purchased in Magnit stores will be donated to WWF´s forest preservation and climate change prevention initiatives in Russia. And on March 28th, at Earth Hour, consumers will be able to buy P&G goods in the Magnit chain at special prices. Fairy Pure&Clean – Now in Russia P&G’s sustainable approach across the cycle of product creation and use and innovative products developed with care for the environment were presented at the “Ecology of Business” media forum by Virginie Helias, P&G’s Chief Sustainability Officer. In particular, P&G launches in Russia the Fairy Pure&Clean collection with 100-percent natural fragrances of organically grown lavender, rosemary, bergamot and ginger. For those who prefer their dishwashing liquid without fragrance, the company offers a perfume- and dye-free option. The new collection is dermatologically tested, phosphate-free, and environmentally certified. Its formulation remains effective in cold water, removing even the most difficult stains. The detergent’s active components are 100-percent biodegradable. Fairy Pure&Clean’s clear bottle is 100-percent recyclable. Virginie Helias, P&G’s VP for Sustainable Development: ‘At the Davos Forum, 2020 was called a Super Year. The year when collaborative action will put us on the right trajectory. For P&G as well, it will be a super year, the year of regenerative action, where we will be in the lead, to activate our Ambition 2030 goals, across our brands, and through innovation, and transformative partnerships. We will strive to not only reduce our impact, but be a force for regeneration, to address the challenges of plastic waste, water scarcity and biodiversity loss. And you will hear more about our commitments to forest conservation.’ Anna Meleshina, Magnit Director for Corporate Relations and Sustainable Development: ‘Our partnership with P&G will become a key project implementing Magnit’s sustainable development strategy, one of whose main goals is to lead in reducing our environmental footprint. Sustainability is our focus. In 2019, we expanded the range of sustainable home care products by 60%, which was met very positively by our consumers, reflecting in a sales increase of 75%. We have launched pilot projects of in-store waste collection, which have become very popular. Together with P&G, will continue changing the buyers’ treatment of plastic waste and fostering the overall culture of responsible consumption.’ About P&G P&G serves consumers around the world with one of the strongest portfolios of trusted, quality, leadership brands, including Always®, Ariel®, Gillette®, Head & Shoulders®, Lenor®, Herbal Essences®, Oral-B®, Pampers®, Pantene®, Tide®, and Vicks®.

  • The Best a Brand Can Be? P&G's Femvertising Meeting Hegemonic
    Course: SKOM12 Term: Spring 2020 Supervisor: Scott Burnett Examiner: Cecilia Cassinger The best a brand can be? P&G’s femvertising meeting hegemonic masculinity PATRICIA AGUDELO Lund University Department of strategic communication Master’s thesis 1 Abstract The best a brand can be? P&G’s femvertising meeting hegemonic masculinity This thesis uses Feminist Critical Discourse Analysis and Multimodal Discourse Analysis to study how a house of brands, like Procter & Gamble (P&G), handles femvertising, that it is produced by its own brands. The paper analyses the phenomenon using examples from commercials that belong to P&G’s #WeSeeEqual campaign and the controversial commercial video from Gillette The best men can be. One research questions served as a guideline for this project: What characterizes the femvertising pieces targeting women and/or men, produced by the house of brands P&G for their brands Gillette, Fairy, Ariel and Always? In order to be able to study this phenomenon, the empirical materials that will be analysed are: 1) #ShareTheLoad by Ariel, 2) #MakeItFair by Fairy, 3) #LikeAGirl by Always, and 4) The best men can be by Gillette. As theoretical framework this paper uses Foucault’s theory of power and the theory of hegemonic masculinity by Connell & Messerschmidt. What was identified after analysing the data was that the different commercials always include hegemonic masculinity somehow in their content, in some it is attacked directly, in others in a subtle and implicit way and in others just excused or justified. Keyword: Femvertising, Feminist Critical Discourse Analysis, Hegemonic masculinity, Multimodal Discourse Analysis, P&G, Power, Foucault.

  • Vicks® Launches New Nature Fusion™ Line
    VICKS® LAUNCHES NEW NATURE FUSION™ LINE Nature Fusion cough, cold and flu products offer the powerful symptom relief, plus real honey for taste Cincinnati, OH, August 11, 2011 – Procter & Gamble’s (NYSE: PG) Vicks brand announced today that it is launching Nature Fusion, a new line of over-the-counter cold, cough and flu relief products that combine powerful symptom relief with real honey for flavor. What inspired Vicks Nature Fusion? Research shows that consumers increasingly desire more natural and less artificial ingredients in their over-the- counter medications, so Vicks is answering the call with Nature Fusion, which joins the powerful science of symptom relief with the best of nature. Beginning with the original Vicks products launched in 1894 which contained Eucalyptus oils from Australia and menthol from Japan, Vicks has a long history of using ingredients inspired by nature. Now, Vicks is continuing this tradition by blending real honey for flavor in new Vicks Nature Fusion. “For more than 120 years, Vicks has helped people feel better by providing proven treatments to deliver effective relief from cold, cough and flu symptoms,” says Andy Cipra, Vicks Brand Manager. “Today, with the launch of Nature Fusion, Vicks is proud to offer the same powerful medicine now flavored with real honey.” Honey has often been favored as a flavor, but lately it has been getting even more buzz as consumers increasingly seek natural ingredients in the products they use. The addition of honey provides aesthetic properties such as flavor, sweetness and thickness. Nature Fusion is also free from alcohol and gluten.

  • Evaluating the Efficacy of Sixteen Surfactants for Removing Petrochemicals from Feathers*
    Evaluating the Efficacy of Sixteen Surfactants for Removing Petrochemicals from Feathers* Erica A. Miller, DVM and Allison Ricko Abstract: New detergents are developed, and existing products are reformulated on a regular basis. To ensure that the most effective products are used for decontaminating oiled wildlife, periodic assessment is necessary. Sixteen surfactants previously determined (Ambrose and Tegtmeier 2015) to be subjectively effective at removing oil from feathers (based on appearance and water repellency of the feather) were selected for this objective evaluation. This study used the methods developed and described in previous studies (Bryndza et al. 1991, Miller et al. 2003) to assess these 16 products. Standard quantities of feathers were uniformly oiled with a synthetic oil containing components found in many petroleum spills, then subjected to a ‘wash’ and rinse process with 1%, 2%, and 3% dilutions of each of the 16 products. The residue remaining on the washed feather samples was extracted with solvents and analyzed by gas chromatography to determine the quantities of each component present. The resulting data provide a measure of efficacy of each surfactant, allowing for recommendations regarding product use for cleaning oiled birds. INTRODUCTION In order to restore insulating capabilities and water repellency to oil-contaminated feathers, the feathers must be completely freed of both oil and cleaning agents (Dein & Frink 1986, Miller & Welte 1999). The most important considerations for thorough cleaning are effectiveness of a given product at removing petroleum at physiological temperatures and the ease of rinsing away the cleaning product (Frink & Miller 1995). Other considerations for the practical use of a surfactant include commercial availability, potential toxicity to the species being washed, cost, and the logistics of supply and handling (Bryndza et al.

  • Pesach Fairy Tales Shira Raff
    A Compilation of Pesach Fables, Fairy Tales, and Folklore Written by ASHAR GIRLS DIVISION Grades 6-8 Cover art by: Ita Benson 8G Pesach Pinocchio Zehava Isaacson & Ahuva Remez Pinocchio was a young puppet still learning his place in the world. His father, Noah, was very busy because all the little children wanted new toys for Pesach. Pinocchio was created to help his father, to serve him. Right now Noah wanted him to make sure there was no chametz in the house. Pinocchio was not very good at this task, for he loved candy and treats of all kinds, especially wood candy. But Noah would no longer allow him to eat any until after Pesach. Pinocchio did not like this and decided he would go against the word of his father. Suddenly the fairy appeared, this same fairy that had brought Pinocchio to life. When the fairy brought Pinocchio to life she said, “Try your hardest, little puppet, to keep your father's word because this is a VERY big mitzvah.” So Pinocchio listened to the fairy and went to go do what his father told him to do. But Pinocchio forgot his promise to the fairy right then. The fairy was very disappointed to see Ppinocchio eating the chametz. She announced, “For every bite you take, for every lie you say to your father, your nose shall start to grow.” Pinocchio thought she was being silly and unwrapped the candy bar. As Pinocchio started to eat the candy bar, he found his wood nose began to grow with each bite.
