CSR Press Release

Dear Reader,

It may not be front-page news right now, but climate change is still here to stay. Whatever we do now, a certain degree of warming is inevitable. The damage is already done.

Furthermore we have a close look at China after the Olympics have closed. Beijing cleaned up its act for the Olympics. After the party, will it go back to business as usual or consolidate environmental gains?
