Mind Your Money
A practical guide
to sustainable investment
What we do in the next 10 years will determine our future
Humanity’s impact on the planet, its ecosystem, and climate has never been more impactful. In combination with increasing social inequalities it is clear that in this decade, we need to fix a lot of the issues we have created in the last century.
For most of us that can be overwhelming. But what if you were told that there is one action you can take that is over 20 times more effective than the combination of reducing your meat consumption, flights and driving your car? You would at least consider it, right?
Our investments matter
Money and where it is invested determines which industries thrive and which cease to exist. Investing sustainably is the only way to a positive future and something that everyone with savings or a pension should consider.

The idea of the book came one day when I was considering how to add more value to the world. As I have been investing my capital as sustainably as possible in the last 5 years, I figured that I have not only learned a substantial amount but also have applied that knowledge in my own investment portfolio. And that it was time to share that knowledge with other people wondering how to invest sustainably.
I am a serial climate entrepreneur, having co-founded ventures tackling sustainability issues such as methane removal (Powerblocks) and renewable energy finance in emerging markets (Trine). He is committed to inspiring positive change and youth leadership in sustainable development, as an advocate for a more sustainable world and in his role as entrepreneur, coach and author.
"The book should be useful for both experienced and inexperienced investors, as well as for those with lots of money to spare and those with more limited savings."
