Is there any “eco-friendly” investment index?
Question: Is there any “eco-friendly” investment index?
I need to prepare an AIDA (persuasive/marketing) sales for class and I’m trying to sell a collective investment scheme that funds and promotes eco-friendly operations and business activities. I can’t find such an index and I could also use a good place to compare multiple indexes (NASDAQ, S&P, etc). Thank you!

There are a couple of them. The most widely recognized are probably KLD’s:

P.S. about your comparison question — any number of sites will draw you nice charts for anything for which you have a ticker. Start here for the KLD SS index (above) and then start adding whatever other indexes you want. (WARNING: It’s a long URL and might get truncated!)
