Episode 138: Vegan Investing with Claire Smith
Vegans are careful to read ingredients, to make sure no animal products are in our meals, we scrutinize products for animal testing, but what about a 401k? What about an investment portfolio? What kind of animal use and abuse do investments support? More than you would ever consider putting your money into if you had a choice. Our guest today is working on a solution. Claire Smith and her team have a first of its kind vegan investment option tailored to exclude any and all animal exploitation.
