In Australia there is a new government. Will it reverse the climate scepticism which seems to have been a hallmark of the previous administration? Here in the UK a responsible investment manager at a major financial institution takes an interesting slant on his job and gets suspended as a result. Questions are asked whether a charity with a view on climate science is in fact a charity or could it be a lobbying group? UK ministers have decided that now is not quite the time to require corporate environmental disclosure, inviting the question if not now, when? There's more bad news from Hinkley C, (I keep having to remind my spellchecker that there’s no ‘C’ in Hinkley - is that an omen?) but there’s a ray of sunshine from Oberlin, Ohio in the United States.
