Sustainability Spotlight
Each year, 400 million tonnes of plastic are produced, 40% of which is single-use. Almost 200 countries have agreed to begin negotiations on an international agreement to tackle the “plastic crisis”. The Global Plastic Treaty would set rules and regulations for the production, use and disposal of plastics.
Street art 2.0
It seems that new ways to buy art are emerging every single day. Now, a digital art collecting platform is using New York vending machines to sell NFT artworks. But there’s a plot twist there’s no way of knowing what you might be buying…
Great resignation
Sapience client, Deborah Gray, Director of Totum Partners, was featured in Bussiness Express discussing how businesses can avoid being struck by the “Great Resignation” as one in five adults look for a career elsewhere.
Collision course
A wayward rocket body from a 2014 Chinese space mission is thought to be on track to crash into the far side of the moon today. This will be the first time in history that a piece of “space junk” has accidentally struck a lunar surface.
This week in PR
London is widely recognised as a global information hub, with thousands of news outlets, digital media companies and broadcast networks making the metropolis their home. In this blog, Sapience explores the reasons behind London’s international position.
