Environment minded investors are embracing socially responsible investing with a focus on clean and green companies. The rise follows Earth Day anniversaries and the Exxon Valdez spill, with funds like New Alternatives and Calvert Appreciation Fund investing exclusively in environmental firms. Experts note mixed performance versus the S&P 500, yet advocates argue long term gains favor environmentally conscious firms as prudent, far sighted choices.
