Re Tesco, a much better pick would have been Marks and Spencer or Innocent Drinks, ideally both. M&S is probably half a decade ahead of Tesco and accelerating fast. Much of Tesco's work so far is talk, rather than action. They may even be back tracking on their committments since they don't actually know how they are going to do it. M&S are really far and away the leaders in sustainable supermarkets. Waitrose too, is a much better pick, albeit smaller. Fantastic news Marc, will read with interest.
