After last weeks stronger focus on CSR this weeks focus in the news I saw was more on environmental topics again. Less corporate news but more reports and opinion. Especially on Climate Change. All in all has it been an interesting week. I do not really have a clear favourite this week. I like then all. So take your pick.
Here are my Top 5 of this week:
