ALL ABOUT THE GREEN TRANSITION SCOREBOARD®
* EMM Provides Rigorous Foundation for GTS
WHAT IS THE GREEN TRANSITION SCOREBOARD?
THE GREEN TRANSITION SCOREBOARD® (GTS) is a time-based global tracking of the private financial system for all sectors involved with green markets, producing a transparent line of sight toward the ethical progress of wealth building as defined by the triple bottom line of planet, people and profits.
The GTS logo represents a visual symbol for inevitable human progress whose barometer rises, away from the symbols of the out-dated Fossil Fuel Era, as green investments increase over the next ten years and we enter the next economy – the age of light.
The GTS was created and realized by Hazel Henderson and Ethical Markets Media. It is updated and maintained by Ethical Markets Media, LLC. Financial data and organizations included in the GTS are screened by the strictest of rigorous social, environment, and ethical auditing standards.
AUGUST 2011 UPDATE
St. Augustine, FL, September 6, 2011 — Ethical Markets Media (USA and Brazil) releases its August 2011 update of the GREEN TRANSITION SCOREBOARD® tracking private sector investments since 2007 in green companies and technologies globally, now totaling more than $2.4 trillion.
The Green Transition Scoreboard® (GTS) counts non-government investments and commitments for all facets of green markets starting in 2007 to the second quarter of 2011 – totaling $2,405,182,005,199 worldwide. The GTS anticipates investments and commitments of $1 trillion annually until 2020, a figure many studies indicate will accelerate the global Green Transition. Compared to the 2010 findings, global investors are slightly off the mark to reach $10 trillion by 2020 but are still building momentum. In an otherwise flat market, Corporate R&D and cleantech M&A are driving much of the green economic growth.
