About Progressive Investor
The clean technology era we are entering is often compared in scale to the rise of the telecommunications industry in the early 1980s and has been called the "mother of all markets." This is a gigantic opportunity and is the next huge wave of innovation, of investment opportunity, of business creativity. It is a once in a lifetime opportunity to invest in young companies that are changing the world for the better.
Progressive Investor shows you how and when to invest in the companies leading the way to a green economy: energy efficiency, renewable energy, green building, organic foods. It is the only newsletter that covers the top sustainable companies across the full range of industry sectors worldwide. Let us help you make informed, financially sound investments that support your ethical principles and give you exposure to the rising green economy we all want to be part of.
When we started Progressive Investor in June 2003, there were several dozen publicly traded companies that we would call "green." Now there are at least 500 companies and dozens of IPOs each year. The major investment houses, venture capital firms and institutional investors have entered the field, bringing it into the mainstream. Now, it's easy and very profitable to create a green portfolio, investing in many of the leading stocks on the world's markets!
We cover all the news concisely; you'll stay on top of all the developments in this exciting time in history. You'll learn about all the emerging companies worldwide in every sustainable business sector from solar to biofuels, from water to green real estate. Keep up with the IPOs, get insight into companies through in depth profiles, and if you want to invest, you'll know when to do it. Staying on top of the flood of emerging companies is interesting and fun, but investing in them means being comfortable with volatility. We make it as easy as we can by highlighting the favorite stocks from our green analyst community.
It's also about investing in leading established companies around the world making a commitment to environmental sustainability and acting on it. These larger companies can be the basis for a stable portfolio. We cover companies of all sizes, and offer insight into how to invest based on market conditions. We also cover mutual funds, ETFs, REITs, investing in forests and other alternative investment categories.

"I'm quite impressed with the depth and content quality of your newsletter. I not only read it, I act on it. I have purchased shares of many companies mentioned in Progressive Investor or other companies that I found while doing more research on those companies. All those new investments are the best performing part of my portfolio - plus I feel good about being an investor in each of them."- Guylaine Nadeau, Canada
Put simply, companies that outperform on the environment, outperform financially. Empirical research demonstrates this.

Strong environmental performance equates to better management overall, which translates into stronger earnings and greater shareholder value.
