Frans on green tech. Top stories this week

We’re delighted to see the amount of ideas flowing in from all over the world. But there can never be too many – so keep ‘m coming. The first submission deadline is coming up in Spain on April 2. Check the deadlines for other countries on our website. Apart from that here are the green reads I enjoyed this week:

• The green bond market is maturing: investment giant BlackRock launches a Green Bond Index Fund.
• Why we need green entrepreneurship in times of Trump: he’s trying to chainsaw nearly every environmental program.
• Amazing artificial power island could supply renewable energy to 80 million people in Europe by 2050.
• I love the simplest solutions such as this biodegradable donut that could let us reforest the planet.
