go to the Liberal Oasis web site. They have a section where they list a number of socially responsible mutual fund companies and provide links to them.

(edit:typo)

2. Try the Progressive
Unfortunately I didn't keep my last issue but I did see an ad for a company that set up mutual funds based on social/ecological issues.

Good luck!

4. see co-op America
I joined them a while ago and they send me their "National Green Pages" in which there are a large number of "green" mutual fund companies and other businesses. They may have some info on their site as well.

5. They have green funds
which are environmentally friendly. I have heard a blurb on NPR where a fund will donate some of its earnings to charity (NPR spot ad)

6. Calvert Social Investment Fund
Every green and blue rating service I have seen says they are the real thing. Been with them for 15 years.
