I have recently returned from a trip to Moldova (located in southwestern Europe and bordered on the west by Romania and on all other sides by Ukraine).
On my way home I began scanning through a week’s worth of email and was surprised to see what I call the &#8216;SunChip® Bag controversy&#8217;.  Coming [...]]]></description>

Many mid-size and larger companies are investing increasing levels of both human and financial resources in corporate social responsibility (CSR) / sustainability efforts, despite a struggling economy. Yet, especially in this economy, for a CSR program to be sustainable, it’s important to develop, maintain and tie CSR goals to overarching corporate goals. This [...]]]></description>
