  Is your checking account financing climate change?

  Great primer on how to start investing green --- one more piece to add to the mix. In assessing how green your portfolio is, or even simply your checking account, one of the most important things to consider is what your bank is using your money to finance. If you bank with one of the big banks like Citi or Bank of America for example, your money (or more accurately, nine times the amount of money you deposited!) is being used to finance coal-fired power plants and mountaintop removal mining. Both of these banks make a great show of their green credentials, but behind the curtain, their portfolio is anything but.
