How to Green Invest or How to invest in Green Investments? 
Following on from the recent COP26 summit, it’s clear the world, although at a slower pace than myself and many others would like is moving toward being more environmentally friendly with the UK trying to lead the charge on the race to net zero. 

Ingrid Holmes, who is the chair of the nation’s NEW “Green Technical Advisory Group” announced that this new advisory group will oversee a “Green Taxonomy” which will define the requirements to measure if financial product to be deemed environmentally sustainable, with the core rules to be in place by the end of 2022. The reason for is an effort to tackle the so-called greenwashing or inaccurate ethical claims on financial products and make it easier for us as investors, to determine which investments are deemed mores sustainable for the climate than others.

Having a “Green Taxonomy” framework is a great step to ensure there is no misinformation, but what if you don’t want to wait until the end of next year to be confident in investing in Green Financial Products. Let’s understand what are green investments, why you may want to invest and how we can invest in them today. Although spoiler warning, its not as easy as you think.
