GreenMoney Journal has a new issue on investing for climate resilience and social impact. The timing couldn’t be better – check it out.

This past week we celebrated our fourth anniversary as a Certified B Corporation! We are proud to be part of this group of businesses that demonstrate high social and environmental performance, are committed to governance structures that are accountable to ALL stakeholders, and exhibit transparency in their business practices. We are in good company.

This looks like a great event for folks in the Decatur and Atlanta GA area. Join Third Act Georgia this Saturday, October 19, for a dialogue about elders, climate change, and the upcoming elections. Those not in Georgia, look for a Third Act group near you! (Thirdact.org)

If you’re a Georgia registered voter, this is a reminder that early in-person voting starts today. If you’re not in Georgia, check your state’s election calendar. Just be sure to vote!

We are happy to celebrate Indigenous People's Day today! While Chicory Wealth no longer has an office building (we all work virtually from home), we encourage our team members to explore the indigenous people who have cared for and continue to care for the lands where they live. Do you know the territory where you are located? https://native-land.ca/

We are thinking of our friends who observe Yom Kippur starting today. May it be a good day.

Scientists agree that the intensity of storms like Hurricane Helene are going to only get worse unless we make major changes. As Michael Mann, the author of “Our Fragile Moment: How Lessons from Earth’s Past Can Help Us Survive the Climate Crisis,” says in this interview, “Climate science has taught us that when we bring our carbon emissions from fossil fuel burning down to zero, when we stop polluting the atmosphere with carbon pollution, the planet will stop warming up. There’s a direct and immediate consequence of our efforts to decarbonize our economy. We’ve got to transition as rapidly as possible away from fossil fuels toward renewable energy.”

We had a great time last Saturday night! And we continue to think of our friends and clients who are struggling with the aftermath of Helene.

We had a wonderful gathering of Chicory Wealth team members, clients, and friends this past Saturday at the Trolley Barn in Decatur, Georgia. We enjoyed being together, while highlighting the three organizations that were part of our Chicory 1% for Social Justice (link in comments). Here's a photo of MOST of our 18 team members!
