About this organization
Mission
To promote corporate social and environmental responsibility through shareholder advocacy, coalition building, innovative legal strategies, and online financial transparency tools.
About
Energy: As You Sow is working to accelerate market transformation toward a clean energy economy to avoid the threats of climate change to the world's populations, ecosystems, and economies. Our energy program exposes the financial and environmental risks of coal, oil, and gas companies and creates global investor coalitions for change. Our goal is to create a major flow of capital away from fossil fuels and into clean energy infrastructure. We point out the risks of continued investment in coal, oil, and gas; the dangers of hydraulic fracturing; and the benefits and opportunities of clean technologies. We research and write original reports, develop financial transparency tools, engage major oil, gas, coal, and utility corporations in dialogue, and employ shareholder advocacy to create systemic change. In 2018 we engaged and filed shareholder resolutions with sompanies including FirstEnergy, Noble Energy, Chevron, Exxon, AIG, Anadarko, Entergy, Ford, GM, JP Morgan Chase, Kroger, Wells Fargo, Ameren, and Duke Energy addressing stranded carbon asset risk, climate change, GHG reduction, methane, hydraulic fracturing, and risks of coal. We continued to expand a website for financial disclosure of fossil fuels in mutual funds.
