Create a Green Investing Strategy Today

As with traditional investing, personal green investment strategies are diverse and can be difficult to navigate. As an individual, you are faced with innumerable options when looking for new investment opportunities. Fortunately there are a plethora of resources available for you to help search out the best opportunities. Where to begin?

• Ask Questions - Look into how your potential company deals with problems, how they relate with the community, and whether their environmental policies are green or just green-washing.
   
• Peruse Sustainability Indexes - Indexes, such as the Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes are useful tools to gauge not only a company's financial but their environmental performance.
   
• Read Annual Reports and CSR Reports - Companies usually have their annual and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) reports available to download through their individual websites.
   
• Consult with a Green Investment Analyst - Many investment analysts are beginning to specialize in green and socially responsible stock options. For those with the means, this route can offer you a personally tailored experience when delving into green stock options.
