Former GEF CEO Carlos Manuel Rodríguez to Chair new forest finance facility launched by Everland

HALO Facility launched to address one of the most significant barriers facing community-led forest conservation projects: access to early-stage and continuity capital

 

New York, 5 June 2026 – On World Environment Day, conservation organization Everland announced the launch of the HALO (Holistic Alignment for Lasting Outcomes) Facility: a new financing initiative designed to provide community-led forest conservation projects with the early-stage and continuity capital needed to establish strong foundations and advance toward investment readiness.

Carlos Manuel Rodríguez, former CEO and Chair of the Global Environment Facility (GEF) and former Minister of Environment and Energy of Costa Rica, will serve as HALO’s inaugural Chair. A recognized global authority on conservation finance, Rodríguez will oversee the Facility’s fundraising, governance, and strategic development.

HALO emerged from the Indigenous Amazon Outcome Bond initiative, which aims to mobilize institutional capital for community-led forest conservation projects under Equitable Earth: a next-generation carbon standard designed specifically to meet the priorities of Indigenous and traditional forest communities, and the integrity requirements of carbon credit buyers.

23 projects representing almost 90,000 community members across 17 million hectares of the Amazon rainforest in Brazil, Bolivia, Colombia and Peru have stepped forward to participate. But many months of engagement with communities and investors revealed a consistent challenge: while institutional capital is increasingly interested in projects like these, many projects need money to complete fundamental development activities before they become ready for institutional investment.

HALO was created to address this gap.

As HALO raises capital, it will provide catalytic and bridge financing to high-potential projects, so they have the resources to establish the foundations upon which durable conservation depends. It is these foundations that mitigate risk and can unlock access to larger financing for projects and long-term revenue for communities.

“Durable conservation is most likely to be achieved when communities are at the center,” said Carlos Manuel Rodríguez,“ and REDD+ projects have proven to be one of the most effective ways to channel private finance to forest communities and biodiversity protection. Yet too often, promising projects fail because they lack access to the right capital at the right time. HALO was created to overcome this challenge, and I’m proud to serve as its Chair. Our aim is to help create the conditions for communities to build sovereign wealth while safeguarding millions of hectares of threatened rainforest.”

HALO is currently seeking philanthropic, public-sector, and private-sector partners to support its initial capitalization and help bring high-potential Indigenous-and-traditional-community-led conservation projects to investment readiness.

Puyr Tembé, community leader from the Tembé people and former Indigenous Secretary of the State of Pará, added: “Across the Amazon, Indigenous Peoples and traditional communities remain on the frontlines of forest protection, confronting daily invasions, deforestation, illegal mining, and other pressures that threaten our lives, our territories, and our ways of being. We are not merely witnesses to the climate crisis, we are part of the solutions the world is searching for. The challenge is not a lack of knowledge, wisdom, or capacity within our territories. The challenge is that those who profit from the destruction of the forest continue to have greater access to financial resources than those who dedicate their lives to protecting it. That is why we advocate for direct funding to Indigenous Peoples and traditional communities, without barriers that prevent resources from reaching those who are safeguarding the forest on the ground. When Indigenous territories are strengthened, the forest remains standing, biodiversity is protected, and climate stability benefits not only the Amazon, but all of humanity. Reforesting minds and investing in Indigenous Peoples means investing in real solutions for the future of our planet.”

NYSE Content Update: AstraZeneca Celebrates Largest Transfer in NYSE History

Bitmine Immersion Technologies Announces Pricing of Upsized Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock Offering

NORWALK, Conn., June 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Bitmine Immersion Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: BMNR) (the “Company”) today announced the pricing of its upsized offering (the “offering”) registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on June 4, 2026 of 3,500,000 shares of 9.50% Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), at a public offering price of $80.00 per share. This reflects an upsizing of the previously announced offering of 3,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The issuance and sale of the Series A Preferred Stock are scheduled to settle on June 10, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.

Bitmine Immersion Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: BMNR)

The Company estimates that the net proceeds it will receive from the offering will be approximately $273.8 million, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and the Company’s estimated offering expenses. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include the acquisition of additional ETH and other digital assets, the expansion of the Company’s staking and validator infrastructure, including through MAVAN; working capital; strategic investments aligned with the Ethereum ecosystem and broader digital asset adoption; and/or repurchases of the Company’s common stock under its share repurchase program.

The Series A Preferred Stock will accumulate cumulative dividends at a fixed rate of 9.50% per annum on the stated amount, which is $100 per share of Series A Preferred Stock, regardless of whether or not declared or funds are legally available for their payment (the “stated amount”). Regular dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock will be payable when, as and if declared by the Company’s board of directors, out of funds legally available for their payment, weekly in arrears; provided that the Company may in the future elect, in its sole discretion, to pay regular dividends more frequently. Declared regular dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock will be payable solely in cash. In the event that any accumulated regular dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock is not paid on the applicable regular dividend payment date, then additional regular dividends (“compounded dividends”) will accumulate on the amount of such unpaid regular dividend, compounded weekly at the compounded dividend rate. The Company will have the flexibility to elect to increase the payment frequency of regular dividends to be more often than weekly and, in the event that the Company so elects, the additional dividend rate increase per regular dividend period will be proportionately reduced to reflect such shorter regular dividend period such that the maximum aggregate additional dividend rate increase per annum is 260 basis points.

The compounded dividend rate applicable to any unpaid regular dividend that was due on a regular dividend payment date will initially be a rate per annum equal to 9.50% plus 5 basis points (based on a weekly regular dividend period); provided, however, that, until such regular dividend, together with compounded dividends thereon, is paid in full, such compounded dividend rate will increase by 5 basis points per annum (based on a weekly regular dividend period) for each subsequent regular dividend period, up to a maximum dividend rate of 15% per annum.

The Company will have the right, at its election, to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at any time, or from time to time, for cash as follows: (i) from the original issue date until eighteen (18) months after the original issue date, at a redemption price equal to 110% of the stated amount per share; (ii) from eighteen (18) months to three (3) years after the original issue date, at a redemption price equal to 105% of the stated amount per share; and (iii) after three (3) years following the original issue date, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the stated amount per share; plus, in each case, accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date.

In addition, the Company will have the right to redeem all, but not less than all, of the Series A Preferred Stock if the total number of shares of all Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding is less than 25% of the total number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock originally issued in the offering and in any future offering taken together. The Company will also have the right to redeem all, but not less than all, of the Series A Preferred Stock if certain tax events occur. The redemption price for any Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed in connection with a clean-up call or tax event will be a cash amount equal to the liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed as of the business day before the date on which the Company sends the related redemption notice, plus accumulated and unpaid regular dividends to, but excluding, the redemption date.

If an event that constitutes a “fundamental change” under the certificate of designations governing the Series A Preferred Stock occurs, then holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will have the right to require the Company to repurchase some or all of their shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a cash repurchase price equal to the stated amount of the Series A Preferred Stock to be repurchased, plus accumulated and unpaid regular dividends, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

The liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock shall initially be $100 per share. Effective immediately after the close of business on each business day after the initial issue date (and, if applicable, during the course of a business day on which any sale transaction to be settled by the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock is executed, from the exact time of the first such sale transaction during such business day until the close of business of such business day), the liquidation preference per share of Series A Preferred Stock will be adjusted to be the greatest of (i) the stated amount per share of Series A Preferred Stock; (ii) in the case of any business day with respect to which the Company has, on such business day or any business day during the ten (10) trading day period preceding such business day, executed any sale transaction to be settled by the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock, an amount equal to the last reported sale price per share of Series A Preferred Stock on the trading day immediately before such business day; and (iii) the arithmetic average of the last reported sale prices per share of Series A Preferred Stock for each trading day of the ten (10) consecutive trading days immediately preceding such business day; provided, however, that, if applicable, the reference in (iii) to ten (10) will be replaced by such lesser number of trading days as have elapsed during the period from, and including, the initial issue date to, but excluding, such business day. However, the liquidation preference will not be adjusted to an amount that is less than $100 per share.

The Company has applied to list the Series A Preferred Stock on The New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “BMNP.” If the listing is approved, the Company expects trading to commence within 30 days after the date the Series A Preferred Stock is first issued.

Moelis & Company and Cantor are acting as joint lead bookrunners for the offering.

The offering is being made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-288579), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 9, 2025 (the “Registration Statement”). The offering will be made only by means of a prospectus supplement and an accompanying prospectus included in the Registration Statement.

NABARD, New Delhi marks World Environment Day 2026

NABARD, New Delhi marks World Environment Day 2026

New Delhi, June 05: National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD) in collaboration with KVK Ujwa successfully organized a World Environment Day programme on 05 June 2026, bringing together scientists, officials, women farmers, and local farming communities to address critical issues of climate change, soil health, natural farming, and sustainable livelihoods in Delhi’s rural belt.

 The event was led by KVK Prog. director Dr. T. K. Rana and Sh. Nabin Kumar Roy, Chief General Manager, NABARDNew Delhi Regional Office along with Sh. Vishal Sharma, DGM. The programme highlighted the urgent need to restore ecological balance in agriculture while improving farmers’ income through scientific and sustainable practices. 

Strengthening Extension and Collaboration, the KVK Ujwa team outlined its role under the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), with a multidisciplinary group of scientists specializing in horticulture, agronomy, soil science, veterinary science, home science, extension, and plant protection. NABARD and KVK jointly agreed to strengthen coordination, share field-level program schedules, and work closely with local coordinators to enhance outreach in villages. 

Addressing Environmental Challenges in Agriculture, Speakers emphasized the growing environmental stress in Delhi’s rural regions, including declining soil fertility, groundwater salinity, and climate variability. Farmers were urged to adopt scientific soil management practices, including soil testing and balanced fertilizer application, rather than excessive use of chemical inputs. The analogy of “wrong medicine for the wrong disease” was used to explain nutrient mismanagement in fields. 

Further, Sh. Nabin Kumar Roy underscored the need for broader policy recognition of Delhi’s farmers, noting gaps in institutional support due to urban classification. He reiterated NABARD’s commitment to raising these concerns at higher levels and supporting farmer-centric initiatives in partnership with KVK.

Natural and organic farming practices such as use of farmyard manure, crop rotation, green manuring, and residue composting were strongly promoted as sustainable alternatives to chemical-intensive agriculture. 

The programme highlighted the importance of water conservation through rainwater harvesting and efficient usage. Participants were sensitized to visible climate changes, including irregular rainfall and temperature fluctuations, and encouraged to view these as warning signs requiring adaptive agricultural practices. KVK experts advocated integrated farming systems combining crops with dairy, poultry, fisheries, and horticulture to optimize income from small landholdings.

A five-day mango value-addition training programme scheduled for late June was also announced. 

Fruit saplings were distributed to farmers as part of the Environment Day celebrations, with clear instructions on proper planting, mulching, and care. Farmers were encouraged to plant and protect these saplings to ensure long-term environmental and economic benefits. 

The event concluded with a joint plantation activity, group interaction, and a reaffirmed commitment by KVK and NABARD to continue collaborative programmes on climate resilience, soil health, and rural livelihoods.

CERAVE CELEBRATES OVER 100 AWARD-WINNING CONTENT CREATORS FROM 22 COUNTRIES FOR THE FIRST EVER GLOBAL CERAWARDS

The multi-day event united global creators in Hollywood for a content creation competition experience to educate and entertain consumers on healthy skin habits.

NEW YORK, June 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — CeraVe, global skincare brand developed with dermatologists and recommended by more than 90,000 dermatologists worldwide1, brought together 111 award-winning creators from 22 countries for the first-ever Global CerAwards in Los Angeles.

Originally launched in Spain in 2023, the CerAwards is CeraVe’s annual content creation competition recognizing outstanding skincare content from creators, dermatologists and healthcare professionals. Since its launch, the program has expanded globally, with 22 countries having hosted local competitions – this year alone – receiving over 5,000 submissions. From those submissions, 111 winners emerged to compete in the inaugural Global CerAwards — the grand finale — where creators go before an international jury to be crowned the best in skincare content.

Today, CeraVe reaches more than 15 million followers worldwide and billions of video views across platforms, driven by creators, medfluencers and skincare enthusiasts who have helped make CeraVe one of the most talked-about skincare brands on social media. Together, attendees at the inaugural Global CerAwards represented a combined reach of more than 44 million followers — underscoring the influence of the creator community that continues to bring CeraVe’s dermatologist expertise to audiences around the world.

CeraVe Studios: A Hollywood Experience Built for Creators
At the heart of the Global CerAwards was CeraVe Studios, an immersive content creation experience hosted on a Hollywood studio lot. Featuring custom-built sets, professional actors and stunt performers, creators were challenged to push the boundaries of skincare storytelling while bringing CeraVe’s cleansers and newest suncare innovations to life through four signature experiences:

  • Raywatch: Inspired by the iconic slow-motion Malibu beach run, creators raced through a wind-blown, simulated beach environment to demonstrate how CeraVe suncare is sand resistant.
  • The SPF Games: Players had 3 seconds to run, hide and shield themselves from the sun using giant CeraVe suncare products. If they missed the protection window creators were sprayed with water — but CeraVe sunscreen stayed on since it’s water resistant.
  • Stunt N’ Sweat: Creators stepped into a high-energy rooftop chase, navigating obstacles under the sun to push physical limits. CeraVe Invisible Hydrating Sunscreen proved its sweat-resistant performance in motion.
  • Mission Cleanser: Attendees moved swiftly through a laser-laced set to retrieve the CeraVe Foaming Cleanser. The lasers represented a compromised skin barrier, a reminder that if your skin squeaks, your barrier is weak!

Rooted in CeraVe’s signature medutainment approach, the experiences transformed product efficacy into creator-led storytelling — bringing to life the science behind CeraVe’s formulas, including the brand’s three essential ceramides identical to those found in the skin.

Celebrating the Best of the Best
The Global CerAwards culminated at Los Angeles’ iconic Wiltern Theatre, where creators gathered for an evening celebrating the talent, creativity and originality that continue to shape skincare culture online. Hosted by actress and comedian Meg Stalter, the ceremony featured a global judging panel including actress Bailee Madison, Board-Certified Dermatologist and creator Dr. Andrew Park, and Gene Colón – Global SVP, Medical Affairs & Communications at CeraVe.

The ceremony crowned the inaugural Global CerAwards winners, inducting them into the Ceramide Squad – CeraVe’s global creator collective – celebrating outstanding creativity from across the community while recognizing standout content created during the trip.

Built on Science. Amplified by Creators.
Developed with dermatologists since its founding in 2005, CeraVe combined science-backed skincare with education from day one. Built on a foundation of three essential ceramides identical to those found naturally in the skin, and deep expertise in skin barrier function, the brand helped establish the blueprint for how dermatologists, healthcare professionals and creators engage on social media — helping shape how millions of consumers discover, learn about and engage with skincare every day.

Vincent Chauvière, Global Brand President, CeraVe
“CeraVe has always believed in meeting consumers where culture happens, and we were among the first brands to harness the power of social platforms to make dermatological education more engaging and accessible,” said Vincent Chauvière, Global Brand President of CeraVe. “With the inaugural Global CerAwards, we’re taking that commitment even further by bringing together 111 creators from 22 countries for a one-of-a-kind Hollywood experience designed to push the boundaries of storytelling, spark creativity and redefine what’s possible when creators, science and entertainment come together.”

Dr. Andrew Park, Board-Certified Dermatologist and Creator
“CeraVe has always understood the power of social media to make skin health education more accessible, and they’ve been a pioneer in bringing dermatologists into those conversations. As both a dermatologist and creator, I know how rare it is to have the opportunity to collaborate with this level of talent from around the world and create content at this scale. Experiences like this don’t just inspire creativity — they help raise the bar for what skincare education can look like on social media.”

About CeraVe
Founded in 2005 with a mission to provide therapeutic skincare for all, CeraVe creates products developed with dermatologists to restore and maintain the skin’s natural barrier. All CeraVe formulas are enriched with three skin-identical ceramides AP, NP and EOP (also called 1, 3 and 6-II), with select products featuring MVE Technology for controlled, long-lasting hydration.

Making Sustainability Count on World Environment Day: How Beko Focuses on Lowering Water and Energy Consumption from Factories to Homes

ISTANBUL, June 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Beko, a leading home appliances company, is marking World Environment Day by highlighting a suite of technologies designed to deliver tangible reductions in energy and water consumption at home. This focus on resource reduction extends to the company’s global production facilities, where circular manufacturing practices and operational processes drive lower energy and water usage as well as lower waste generation.

Can Dincer, Beko CEO

Across its washing machine and dishwasher range, Beko integrates advanced technologies designed to optimize daily resource use. These advancements, including PowerIntense for dishwashing and EnergySpin for laundry, focus on lowering water and energy consumption respectively during everyday household routines.

Optimizing Resource Use Across Household Routines

Beko’s PowerIntense dishwasher technology delivers cleaning performance with as little as 5.9 liters of water per cycle, while delivering up to five times better cleaning performance[1].This resource-saving capability is a meaningful advancement at a time when water scarcity is a growing concern in many markets.

When it comes to daily laundry routines, EnergySpin technology in washing machines reduces energy consumption by up to 35%[2] compared to equivalent Beko machines without the technology. Together, these technologies demonstrate how Beko’s innovation can simplify everyday life while supporting lower resource use and optimized utility consumption for households.

Resource Management and Waste Reduction at the Core of Production

Lowering resource consumption at home is closely linked with sustainable manufacturing practices. This commitment begins directly within Beko’s production facilities, where targeted operational updates drive measurable environmental improvements. Reducing water usage in products and production processes is a critical focus for Beko in all markets across its suite of products and technologies. For instance, at the Manisa Washing Machine Plant in Türkiye, targeted optimizations have reduced water consumption per product by approximately 79%. Meanwhile, at its Singer facility, plastic waste has been cut by more than 90%.

These efforts support a broader corporate commitment: Beko aims to reduce Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 42% by 2030. Across its sites in Türkiye, Romania, Egypt and Bangladesh, best-in-class sustainability efforts are demonstrated through WEF-recognised leadership[3], initiatives to reduce waste generation and improve waste recovery in manufacturing operations[4], and renewable energy use[5].

“We at Beko believe that real environmental responsibility requires looking at the bigger picture; combining how we manage our production with how our products perform at home,” said Can Dinçer, CEO of Beko, “Over the years, we have built sustainability into one of our strongest capabilities through continuous innovation and investment. By driving water and energy efficiency and reducing waste across our global manufacturing operations, as well as developing appliances that lower everyday resource consumption, we focus on practical sustainability.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted that Vietnam is actively seeking cooperation with reputable international industry participants to support the development of legal frameworks, supervisory systems, transaction monitoring capabilities, technology infrastructure, and talent training necessary for the safe implementation of the pilot program.
