Not having any stocks ourselves I don’t have to think about it but it is certainly something to consider. If we buy “eco” and “green” products then we should think about what we invest our money in as well.

The problem, as outlined in the post is who really is a green investment. So many companies simply jump on the bandwagon but part of their company is anything but green or environmentally friendly.

Them dark ages sure sound um “dark”

They promise all investments are ethical!!?? hmm, however the most important thing to me is that they don’t invest in anything to do with the arms industry. All their own brand (generic in US?) products are fair trade.

They also have a cool headquaters in Manchester which is completely solar, grey water, carbon blah ,blah. But they are a huge business with shops and outlets in virtually every town or village in the UK.

It can be done, pragmatically, and don’t get me wrong I’m no cheerleader for the global warming thought police, I just think we ought to perhaps leave some of the stuff for later, just in case our great, great grandchildren don’t want to live in the new dark ages, cos they were um, dark and cold and ‘not much fun at all’
