The 2026 Nobel Prize in Chemistry Explained: Why Life Picks One Hand
The 2026 Nobel Prize in Chemistry went to Henri Kagan and Kenso Soai. They showed how a chemical reaction that starts almost fifty-fifty ends with one mirror image only. I explain their work in plain words, with spearmint, a drawer of gloves and the thalidomide scandal. Then I apply the same test to corporate sustainability across People, Planet and Profit, from a herbicide that cut its dose by up to 40% to CSRD reports that count tonnes and euros but say little about how the

The 2026 Nobel Prize in Medicine Explained: A Light Switch for Brain Cells
The 2026 Nobel Prize in Medicine went to Karl Deisseroth, Peter Hegemann and Georg Nagel for optogenetics, a light switch that turns chosen brain cells on and off. I explain the science in plain words, with a green alga that swims toward light and a blind patient who regained partial sight. Then I hold it next to corporate sustainability.

Pink in October, Phthalates All Year
Pink October has pushed breast cancer screening since 1985, yet new cases still rise in half the countries studied by IARC in 2025.

The Companies That Got Richer by Never Selling You Their Product
Ownership looks like the win. Buy the machine. Own the asset. Put in the balance sheet and call it a strategy. I have sat across the table from boards that repeat this logic for twenty years, and I have watched what that logic cost them five years later. The buyer owns the failure. The buyers owns the waste. the buyer owns the disposal cost nobody put in the brochure. Ownership was never the prize. It is the risk, quietly handed to whoever signed the check. A different model

The Implications of the New Genomic Techniques Vote
Brussels deregulated gene-edited crops on 17 June 2026, citing climate adaptation, food security, and EU competitiveness. NGT-1 crops under 20 genetic modifications now skip risk assessment and traceability. But while labeling rules were dropped, patent rights for Bayer, Syngenta, and Corteva stayed untouched. This piece breaks down the real governance failure behind the CRISPR crop vote.

Bad governance has always had a body count
Every ESG framework measures board composition and audit independence. Almost none ask the question that determines whether governance actually works: who decides which harms are worth measuring?
That is not abstract. It has a documented history.
In CSR, we call it materiality assessment. The mechanism sounds technical. It is not. It is a values decision dressed in accounting language.
And when you trace it back through history, the pattern is impossible to ignore.

What Two Years Sitting In Hiring Rooms Taught Us About "Culture Fit
We spent two years as an external consultant watching companies hire managers and directors. They paid us to improve their processes.

Here’s what nobody wants to admit.
