I could not really end this week without another post on my top Sustainability news.
So here are three choices of interesting Sustainability stories from this week.
The first is about investment in sustainability or green initiatives, the second about the future of the utilities sector and the final news item on the latest research on the state of the Amazon rain forest deforestation. A pretty diverse selection but interesting news items in my opinion.
Happy browsing.
