Green Skies: How to Fight Climate Change while Saving for Retirement [Free; Online; RSVP]

February 10, 2022 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Free
EnvironmentalNew!

Many of us are personally concerned about climate change.  And many of us invest for retirement.  Investment companies want you to believe that your retirement accounts are making a difference on the climate change front, but are they really? The answer is a resounding “maybe” – IF you know what to look for.

Join us for this virtual event to talk about what is real and what is “greenwashing” when investing to improve climate change, and to find out what you can do to make a real difference.

This event is free, please RSVP below!  You will receive your Zoom link the week of the class.
