The New Green Investment: Carbon Xprint Bonds positively impact climate change while being profitable
Living "green” may not be new to you. Most of us are recycling, changing appliances over to energy efficient alternatives and driving cars with cleaner emissions, therefore reducing our carbon footprint. But is it too little, too late? Not according to environmental capitalist, Gary Keir, who says that green investing with Carbon Xprint (CXP) Bonds allows individuals and organizations to attack two of climate change's biggest needs: 1) the need to take action for our carbon footprint; and 2) the need for investment.
The Problem – Climate Change
Extreme weather events, from severe storms and rising seas to extreme droughts and wildfires, are becoming the norm rather than the exception. With these come earlier frosts, insect infestations and higher food cost.
According to a recent White House report, climate change is no longer a threat of the future. It's here and action is needed now. (source: CNN)
The Solution – Green Investing
CXP Bonds, which are certified by the FDIC, are designed to conquer the financial drain that replacing old technologies for new ones can have on businesses.
"Many of the technologies to change our energy infrastructure already exist,” says Keir. "What is needed is investment, the will to change, and a mechanism to become engaged. One mechanism is Carbon Xprint.”
Investors range from individuals to Fortune 500 companies. CXP Bonds allow companies and individuals a profitable method to certify their commitment to sustainability. Thus, an immediate benefit of investing in CXP Bonds is knowing that funds are dedicated to making changes to positively impact climate change today. In addition, investors make interest on their investment.
Recipients of loans, financed by CXP Bonds, are able to borrow the capital to make the necessary changes to reduce their carbon footprint. Some businesses may choose to initially invest and use their profits to finance their improvements. Regardless, it is a win-win for all of us.
