The final of a three-part series by MPR’s Chris Farrell about the economy and climate change, called “The Greener Good.” This episode is about ethical investing.
How can you express your values, improve your financial returns and have an impact on the world? Most agree that socially responsible investing helps the planet — and your bottom line.
A warming planet changes everything, including how businesses think about investing. Environmental, social and governance (ESG) data can be used to help key players build a more ethical strategy that can also deliver solid returns.
This program is hosted by MPR senior economics contributor Chris Farrell.
Guests:
Bruno Sarda is the executive director of the HOW Institute and a professor at Arizona State University’s Global Institute of Sustainability and Innovation.
Heidi DuBois is an executive vice-president and head of ESG for Edelman.
