How Green is Your Money, report and other news

How Green is your Money?

Rowan Harding, the ethical financial advisor, who spoke at our November meeting, explained clearly the power that money has, and how that power can be harnessed to either harm or help the planet and its people. Money in our bank accounts and pensions is all being invested on our behalf and it is important for us to be aware whether that is being used for good or ill. In her slides, she showed us clearly how our money can have 21x more impact on our carbon footprint than any other behavioural changes we can make.

Here is the link to Rowan’s excellent slide presentation. It will only be available for one month on line but it is well worth watching:
