What is sustainable investment and what is its role in the greater environmental movement? What change is necessary to adopt a sustainable model for our financial institutions? Like it or not, we are all tied up in Wall Street. We can, however, use these markets to propel climate mitigation and adaptation. Catch an open lecture at Columbia University by Stephen Viederman, an author and expert on sustainable investing, who serves as the US Chair of the Network for Sustainable Financial Markets.

The lecture will be held at Columbia’s Morningside Heights campus, 1015 Schermerhorn Extension. Be sure to register here, and enjoy a though-provoking presentation regarding the evolution of our financial markets in response to climate change.
