This week's top stories of the week include:
0:15 Well-being boosts productivity – Poor mental health costs the global economy $2.5 trillion per year. Experts say that could grow to $6 trillion by 2030. Younger generations entering the workforce are pushing for change. What can employers do to look after the mental health of their employees?
2:41 Teamwork lessons from an astronaut – Soichi Noguchi is a veteran of Japanese and US space missions. Cumulatively, he has spent almost a year in space and he even performed Chopin for the world aboard the International Space Station.
5:41 Al Gore: Close the green finance gap – This is how the world can close the ‘green’ investment gap, according to Al Gore. The world invested a record $1.7 trillion in clean energy in 2023.

Here are several ways to ramp up green investment, according to Al Gore.
