Another way to use your money to fight climate change: Disinvest your retirement funds from all stocks or mutual funds in Big Coal And Oil and all related industries. Move them to ESG investments (Environmental and Social Governance) instead. I did it several years ago and my portfolio is doing just as well as my husband's, who hasn't moved his out of "traditional" investments yet. I saw an apt cartoon recently on this. A person is standing next to several fat money bags in a blasted and dead landscape, saying to someone outside the frame: "But look at all the money we saved for you!"
