WARNING: Carbon footprint data is no longer being updated.

As of 2023, we are no longer updating fund carbon footprint data. This is due to a lack of access to regularly-updated company-level carbon footprint data. We are looking into whether we can find a new source for this data. Until then, all fund carbon footprint data should be considered out of date.

Carbon footprintof all the companies in the portfolio.

Sorry, we don't have a carbon footprint for this fund.
