Earlier this month Sea Change Radio conducted an interview with Earthscan authors Nick Robins (of HSBC) and Cary Krosinsky of (Trucost) about their book, Sustainable Investing.
According to Sea Change Radio,
People have long considered the impact of their financial transactions
on society and the planet. In the 1970s, the launch of the Pax World
Balanced Fund formalized SRI, and the field has grown to where now, one
in nine dollars is invested using SRI. But as the world continues to
change, so too does the SRI field. In 2007, Joe Keefe and Julie Gorte
of Pax World coined the term “sustainable investing” to describe a
process based less on values, and more on the value
created by investing in a sustainable world. In our conversation with
Cary Krosinsky and Nick Robins, we explore the distinctions and
commonalities between SRI and sustainable investing.
