		<description><![CDATA[The word on the street was that the auto industry was dead on its feet not so long ago, but I am not so sure that this is true.  My brother has worked with the big automakers most of his career &#8211; he returned from Detroit last week saying that the old buzz is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We’ve all seen the little messages at the foot of e-mails urging us to ‘save the planet’ by reducing unnecessary printing. The wonders of technology now mean we can send written communications to each other while avoiding the environmental impacts of producing paper and ink and using the energy needed for printing.

I participated in three events focusing variously on: food companies and sustainability, the role of marketing, and how to influence consumer behaviour. The first was a breakfast briefing, hosted by our friends at The Futures Company, where I was a panellist. Later that day I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was speaking to a friend Tim Harford, ‘The Undercover Economist’ writer, columnist and presenter, the other day. He said most economists had been taken by surprise by the repeating financial crisis. Watching the events of the last six months unfold has been very revealing. It is not just the economists that seem to have been wrongfooted, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Most of us can agree on some common cases of greenwash. For example, the label on an environmentally toxic household product that sports pictures of trees and bunnies. Or the claims of a product’s recyclability when, in reality, there’s no infrastructure to recycle it. But we ran into more philosophically challenging examples as well in [...]]]></description>

The timeline stretched from the swinging sixties to some centuries into the future. The production looked at how we respond to information about the impacts of overpopulation, [...]]]></description>

The debate in the US has recently raged over who has the authority to curtail industrial greenhouse [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Assurance is often misunderstood and I&#8217;m concerned that a new study of the market for assurance of sustainability and corporate responsibility reports compounds the problem by painting a skewed picture of where the market is going and even what assurance is.

The report from sustainability analysts Verdantix, called ‘Green Quadrant Analysis on Global Sustainability Assurance Providers’, appears [...]]]></description>
