Listen to this podcast from the Tax Justice Network Taxcast http://www.tackletaxhavens.com/taxcast/

It talks about:

- why investments are made to developing countries via tax havens

- information about the problems between Spain and Britain about Gibraltar, that others are not reporting

- tax and the environment: make the polluter pay, don’t pay the polluter

- the Carbon Tax in British Columbia, Canada.

The Taxcast is produced by @Naomi_Fowler and is also available on iTunes.

Also, look at the great video and Prezi – they explain more about tax havens: http://www.tackletaxhavens.com/
