Strategic CSR - See you in January!


This will be the last CSR Newsletter of the Fall semester.
Have a great holiday season and I will see you in January!


The article in the url below contains a graphic (http://images.fastcompany.com/magazine/148/now-22-infographic-inline.jpg) that depicts the total spending of the seven countries that have invested the most in renewable energy:

As 3,500 global leaders in the energy field gather in Montreal to discuss trends and growth, we calculate which countries have earned the biggest bragging rights. Here, we compare the seven that have made the largest investments in alternative energy.

As well as an overall figure, the graphic breaks down each country’s spending into different kinds of renewable energies (i.e., the percentage spent on wind, solar, biofuels, and so on). The 5 year growth rate in investment for each country is listed, as well as the percentage of total energy capacity that these investments constitute.

Have a good weekend.
