The Environmental Investment Organisation (EIO) Ltd The Environmental Investment Organisation (EIO) is an independent not-for-profit research network promoting carbon transparency and investment solutions designed to address climate change. The EIO has become the first and only organisation in the world to create a public set of Carbon Rankings each year. The Rankings are designed specially to drive lower emissions and encourage greater transparency. The Rankings have received international media attention and have already begun encouraging more companies to make their emissions data public. They also lay the foundations for the subsequent stage of the project, which will see the rankings translated into a series of financial indexes. These indexes are designed to offer the investment community a mainstream investment product capable of applying pressure to company share price in line with emissions and transparency. Please visit www.eio.org.uk for more information.
Projects
We are the Environmental Investment Organisation. Our mission: To tackle climate change. How? Through Environmental Tracking: a market-mechanism designed to drive the world’s largest companies to lower emissions and improve transparency by linking company share price to emissions.
We will be launching a campaign to lobby the largest asset owners in the world to commit 1% of their assets to support the Environmental Tracking mechanism. We need help from a web developer in designing an open source, customisable email lobbying tool that will enable supporters to find their pension fund or other asset owner and easily send them an email to ask them to look into supporting this mechanism.
Knowledge of php, SQL or other database tools would probably be useful although you are likely more of an expert than we are...
Conversations with other NGOs suggest that this is a vitally needed tool and could be used by many campaign groups for a diverse range of issues.
Unfortunately we have no budget, so please only get in touch if you can afford to offer a few days for free.
Please email sam.gill@eio.org.uk if you would like to get involved.
