33% of total invested assets are currently placed in sustainably focused investments. With a new administration in Washington, D.C., what could the future look like for environmentally-focused investors?
We are so thankful that 2020 brought our firm incredible growth and amazing new clients. We are appreciative of our partnership and the impact our investments are making on the world. We invite you to take a look at our 9-page Impact Report to learn more about how our investments compare to the benchmark on an overall ESG quality score, carbon footprint, clean tech, sustainable water, women on boards, and diverse workforce policy.
On December 2, 2020, the team at IMPACTfolio purchased 9,000 pounds of carbon offsets through Aclymate to make our firm officially carbon neutral for the 2020 calendar year. Aclymate is a tool that calculates your firm's climate footprint by reviewing expenditures on travel, office space, utilities, etc. Upon review, our firm was found to have a very small carbon footprint given our efficiencies in leveraging technology. However, the carbon offset that we purchased helped to fully offset our small footprint.
Do your investments accurately reflect your values? Are you seeking both financial returns and social-environmental impact? Your portfolio can make a real difference. During this one-hour webinar, we will guide you the "Way it Was," the "Now," and the "New Normal" of impact investing.
The year of 2020 has started with a bang. OK, more like a fiery explosion of pain, suffering and negativity due to the pandemic and centuries of harmful social and environmental policies. Is this the beginning of Armageddon or is this the beginning of a brighter future for all?
