Jan 14, 2013 - Business Green: Jessica Shankleman hails Tony Juniper's latest book as a must-read for sustainability executives and their colleagues

 

The word "nature" isn't usually written with a capital letter, but for the Prince of Wales' introduction to Tony Juniper's new book, "Nature" becomes a proper noun.
