Environmental harm is commonly associated with companies that extract, consume, and pollute our shared natural resources. Rarely are the 'unseen polluters,' the financiers that sponsor and profit from eco-damaging corporations, placed at the forefront of the environmental debate. By focusing on these unseen polluters, Benjamin Richardson provides a comprehensive examination of socially responsible investment (SRI), and offers a guide to possible reform.

Publisher:Random House Trade Paperbacks
Year:2007

ISBN:0812973712

"According to Jim Rogers, "commodities get no respect." Here are a few reasons why he thinks they should: they are easier to comprehend and study than stocks and behave more rationally since they are subject to the basic laws of supply and demand; they have outperformed many other investment options in recent years; it is foolish to ignore an entire sector of the marketplace; and a bull market is currently under way in commodities - a trend that Rogers expects to last for a least a decade longer.

"Hot Commodities: How Anyone Can Invest Profitably in the World's Best Market" is designed to introduce the novice to the basics of investing in commodities ...
