Strategic CSR - Mosquitoes

The heading in the article in the url below caught my eye:

"Iceland just found its first mosquitoes."

The article does not get any better, from there:

"Iceland's frozen, inhospitable winters have long protected it from mosquitoes, but that may be changing. This week, scientists announced the discovery of three mosquitoes — marking the country's first confirmed finding of these insects in the wild. Mosquitoes are found almost everywhere in the world, with the exception of Antarctica and, until very recently, Iceland, due to their extreme cold."

The article finishes with this uplifting sentiment:

"Mosquitoes, which tend to thrive in warmth and humidity, are likely to be one of the few real winners as the planet heats up."

For more information, please see the article in the second url, below.

Take care
David
