EU bans pesticides over bee concern
The latest business and finance news from around the world, on the 大象传媒.
The EU is to ban pesticides which some scientists say are contributing to the decline in bee populations. We hear from campaigners and ask whether there's enough evidence to justify the two year ban. There's more pain in Greece, where politicians have voted to dismiss 15,000 civil servants to qualify for more bailout money. We're in Spain to hear why the region of Cantabria has banned fracking - just as the UK government considers 'sweeteners' to get British towns and villages on side with gas extraction projects. And why an interview with the Argentinian economy minister has gone viral.
