in Socially Responsible Investing on YBPGuide
Great info. Also see the Global Compact.
" The Global Compact is a framework for businesses that are committed to aligning their operations and strategies with ten universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labour, the environment and anti-corruption . As the world's largest, global corporate citizenship initiative, the Global Compact is first and foremost concerned with exhibiting and building the social legitimacy of business and markets.
We know that business, trade and investment are essential pillars for prosperity and peace. Bit in many areas, business is too often linked with serious dilemmas - for example, exploitative practices, corruption, income equality, and barriers that discourage innovation and entrepreneurship. Responsible business practices can in many ways build trust and social capital, contributing to broad-based development and sustainable markets. "
For a list of socially responsible corporations that have signed the Global Compact, an initiative launched under former Secretary-General Koffi Annan, go to http://www.unglobalcompact.org/ParticipantsAndS.... Current major U.S. partners include eBay Inc., Gap Inc., Microsoft Corporation, Nike Inc., Pzifer Inc., and the Coca-Cola Company.
