Shareholder Advocacy
Environmentally responsible investing is about more than just avoiding unfriendly companies. Green Century Capital Management (Green Century) is committed to shareholder advocacy as a critical component of environmentally responsible investing, and the promotion of corporate environmental responsibility through active dialogue with companies has been a primary mission of Green Century since our inception in 1991.
What is Shareholder Advocacy? Green Century helps foster a sustainable economy by directly encouraging companies to lessen their environmental impacts. From strategic dialogue with management and top executives, to raising issues with the public and other shareholders through the filing of shareholder resolutions, to responsible proxy voting at the companies in which the Green Century Funds hold shares, Green Century employs numerous strategies to encourage improvements in corporate behavior. We work in coalition with other socially responsible investors, religious leaders and our environmental non-profit partners to actively encourage companies to adopt cleaner and healthier practices and products.
