Last week the house passed a $1.75 trillion social policy and climate bill, of which $555 billion is dedicated to climate programs. If the senate passes this bill as well, it will be the biggest government effort to combat climate change in U.S. history and the clean energy sector may benefit substantially by providing tax incentives for low-emissions energy sources.
Here at BAM, we are also committed to environmental and social investing, in alignment with our clients’ values and sound investment strategies. I’m currently researching the best environmental and social ETFs, including clean water, gender equality, socially conscious companies, and excluding sectors like oil and gas, firearms, and tobacco. In addition to the clean energy technologies we are already invested in, we plan to offer more investment options in these arenas in 2022.
I want to hear your thoughts on environmental and social investing, including how important it is to you and what aspects align with your values. Click here and tell me what you think.
