I’m still surprised, however, that someone who wrote a whole book about the responsibility market participants have to look beyond immediate personal gain (particularly in relation to climate) would be like, gimme an index fund that doesn’t exclude oil & gas corporations
He probably didn’t specifically choose that fund. He most likely had someone who managed his portfolio. My guy added oil and gas and pipelines and pharma. When I reviewed my holdings I asked him to divest of those things. I still hold pharma but it’s all small research companies, not the huge global players. Most of my stocks are technology.
