Therefore anyone valuing their personal or spiritual growth has to take these things into account when investing.

Paving the path to Socially Responsible Investing | The ...
[The Mountaineer@Green Mountain College] Employing positive and negative screens makes it possible for GMC to decide which funds to invest in and which categories should be excluded from investments.The implementation of SRI will take place as a controlled and stable process so that returns from responsible investments can be assessed and possible trade-offs (if any) can be considered. As a first step with this new type of investing, $300,000 (about 18% of our $3 million endowment) will be responsibly invested initially, if the Investment Committee approves the recommendation. The ultimate goal of the SRI Committee is to have GMC’s environmental mission statement and investment funds working together to create a more conscious and responsible institution.

[Foreign Investors Group] Socially Responsible Investing (SRI) is a broad-based approach to investing that now encompasses an estimated $2.3 trillion out of $24 trillion in the U.S. investment marketplace today. (7) The release of the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment-subscribed to by some of the world’s largest institutional investors, asset managers, and related organizations representing over $9 trillion in assets as of mid- 2007-underscores the widespread acceptance of the principle that investors cannot, in the long run, achieve their goals by investing in corporations that externalize their costs onto society.

Slow Money Investing: Forget Stocks & Bonds, Invest In Risky ...
[Weakonomics] were a self-righteous ass with more time than brains. Meet Woody Tasch. Woody sets his loins on fire with socially responsible investing now that he’s retired from his days as a venture capitalist. Socially responsible investing is the idea of investing your money in worthy causes instead of chasing the maximum possible return. In Woody’s case the cause is organic farming.
