Invest Like a Climate Activist
Summary: Fossil Fuels Out of Investments
Description
How can you better align your investments with your beliefs? The fossil fuel industry is a huge source of our climate crisis, an industry we should all work towards reducing. What if your financial investments do not align with your commitment to sustainability and you are unknowingly supporting the very industry you are fighting against?
It may not be practical to create a portfolio that aligns perfectly with your beliefs and your financial goals. However, even if you can only move your funds to cleaner (but not perfect) options, say an ESG that has 2% of fossil fuel holdings instead of 8 or 9%, you will show a demand for these types of funds and your voice will be heard.
Remember that like all financial investments, funds that include sustainable investments come with risks and are not guaranteed returns. It is important for you to research the funds and weigh the risks before investing. You may wish to consult a financial advisor who specializes in sustainably focused investing if you would like help.
