When I put the Ethical Investing blog carnival out of its misery, I said I would replace it with regularly scheduled posts on the topic of ethical investing. I also asked for others to send me links to their posts or websites on the subject. I have not kept my word.
Ron Robins, of Investing for the Soul, has gently reminded me about his site, twice. I'm sorry it took two times for me to post something.
Investing for the Soul is a great resource for those looking for ethical investing information. This includes information on green investing, corporate transparency and social responsibility, how religion interacts with investing, mutual funds, and many other topics. The site also has a list of suggested books and offers fee based services, such as helping you find investments that comport with your values, investment research, and portfolio auditing. Workshops and seminars are available as well.
If ethical investing interests you, pay Investing for the Soul a visit.

Bloggers were invited to submit articles on ethical investing, which includes such topics as environmentally friendly, people friendly, animal friendly investments; what makes an investment "ethical," can it be profitable?, what commonly called "ethical" investments are anything but that?, is investing in the so called "vice" industry necessary unethical?, and the like.
There were 24 submissions for this edition. Here are the best four:
Hung Nguyen presents Adding Values to Your Investment: FTSE 4Good Index posted at Meaningful Issues in Today's World, saying, "Would you like to add not only value, but values to your investment? This blog looks at Vanguard's socially responsible investing option. The Vanguard FTSE Social Index is based on the FTSE 4Good Index which has a rigorous screening of funds. I analyze the fund's performance, fees, and its holdings to see if it is worth investing in."
(Fit) Cat presents Sustainable Responsible Investment and my super posted at Fit Cat, saying, "Investing responsibly for retirement through a Sustainable Responsible Investing superannuation Australian fund option."
Alexander Kohl presents Who Furthers Sustainability? | Green to Profit - Becoming a Sustainable Entrepreneur posted at Green to Profit - Becoming a Sustainable Entrepreneur. He examines how non profit organizations, government, businesses and individuals each promote sustainability.

Ethical Investing Blog Carnival
This is the first of what (I hope) will be many blog carnivals on the subject of ethical investing. To me it seems there is a paucity of blog writing on this important issue. The blog carnival's purpose is to encourage more bloggers to write on the subject, and to assemble these posts in one convenient place for readers.
Below are three excellent submissions that were accepted, out of a much greater number (many submissions were off topic).
Hung Nguyen presents Socially Responsible Investment: Can it beat traditional mutual funds? posted at Meaningful Issues in Today's World, looks "at socially responsible investing (SRI). The idea is that by investing in socially responsible companies that you can improve your return. I quickly review the book The SRI Advantage and then look into the problems of SRI and why I won't invest in it."
Socks First presents CSR, Creative Capitalism and the Recession, exploring the following questions: "What's the future of corporate social responsibility? That's the unanswered question with the prospect of a bad US recession looming, threatening to take the world with it. Will companies continue to embrace it when they are battling for survival? Or will changing market conditions redefine corporate social responsibility."
Edith presents Prosperity is a Flow posted at Stewart Hsu, in a thoughtful post saying,"Money, like love, is meant to be circulated. See the value in having a conscious awareness of this balance between giving and receiving."
