He also points out "attractive" stocks in the UK, such as Associated British Foods, which owns retail giant Primark.

The city of Pune, India has seen a sharp rise in tree falling incidents despite efforts to increase the green cover. Data from the Pune Municipal Corporation's Fire Department revealed that in the past four years, tree falling incidents have increased, with 1,664 cases reported from January to November of this year. Experts and activists have cited the covering of tree bases with paver blocks and concretisation around their roots as the main reasons for this rise. The PMC's Garden Department and Tree Authority Department have been blamed for their neglect in upkeep and the imbalance caused by construction near tree bases. Exotic species are particularly vulnerable to these incidents, while indigenous trees are sturdier and fall less frequently. Urgent measures need to be taken to address this issue and protect Pune's urban trees.
