December 7, 2004 - (BOSTON, MA) - A mere 2 percent of the assets of the largest 100 mutual funds in America voted in 2004 to support shareholder resolutions calling for more corporate disclosure on the financial impacts from global warming, according to a new Ceres study authored by the Investor Responsibility Research Center (IRRC) and released today by Results for America, a project of the Civil Society Institute.
The study found that 25 of the 28 investment companies controlling these 100 funds did not heed any requests for closer examination of emerging climate risks. Instead, they abstained or opposed all shareholder proposals that came before them in 2004 seeking analysis and disclosure of the financial risks posed by global warming. By contrast, pension funds and many other investors have backed global warming resolutions in growing numbers - with voting support levels reaching a record high of 37 percent at some 2004 annual meetings.

Dear Sir,
I have just started a couple of climate change blogs. The first,
climate change action, covers some of the most important mitigation
issues and provides regular campaign links to several NGOs. The second
is called climate change resources, and is a repository of links to
reports about climate change, specifically, those used in producing
climate change action.
Please take a look and see if you think they are worth mentioning on
youre site, or linking to, they have certainly been a lot of work!
