Shell accused in court over fossil fuel phaseout
We analyse the court battle between Shell and environmental groups who claim it remains too focused on fossil fuels. And we look at deforestation in the Amazon rainforest.
On this edition of Business Weekly, we analyse the court battle between Shell and the environmental groups who claim the oil giant remains too focused on fossil fuels. We look at a different approach to tackle deforestation and hear how an economic argument could help the Amazon rainforest. We also get an expert view on floundering UK clothing stores, doubly hit by the pandemic and our changing shopping habits. Could in-store cafes and leisure concessions be just the therapy the retail industry needs? We head to central London to hear the tales of a tailor - a master craftsman who is cutting his cloth to suit the future of high-end business wear. And we’ve a lesson in why ‘email etiquette’ needs to be applied to even the shortest message. Business Weekly is presented by Sasha Twining and produced by Matthew Davies.
