Why did you make a positive investment:
“I never realised the money sitting in a bank account is used to invest in fossil fuel companies, until last year. But saying No to fossil fuels is not enough – we must actively invest in the things we believe in.
“So my goals this year involve using ethical banks, supporting green energy companies and investing in sustainable/local initiatives. Investing in this bond is a great way of making a positive impact.”
What do you like about Bristol Energy Cooperative?
“I like the work done by BEC to increase the renewable energy capacity in Bristol, and the fact that it is locally owned. I support its provision of low-cost, renewable energy to local community groups. So the money invested with BEC not only moves us a step closer to a renewable energy future, it also increases the resiliency of local community groups and the local economy.”
