I would like to propose that we at DU develop a resource for people who want to boycott companies that support Bush and the Republicans and their agenda. I have found some helpful web resources. But I haven’t yet found a really good source listing US companies that support Bush. There are also lots of resources about socially responsible investing, a broader topic that overlaps the Boycott Republicans issue though. I've cross posted in Activism/Events where things move slower.
Can anyone with additional ideas or information please post it here.
Boycott Republicans Resources:
http://www.boycott-republicans.com/This is really a petition generating site, it does not seem to list companies to avoid
www.ethicalconsumer.org
http://www.boycottbush.net/These are both UK sites. Boycott Bush lists the top 25 corporate donors to Bush and their UK products, many of which are sold in the US. Does anyone know of a comparable resource for US products and a more comprehensive list?
Socially Responsible Investing:
There are a lot of resources on this. I’ve listed a few that seem really good. It would be really helpful if any DUers with experience or professional knowledge in this area would post their ideas and advice.
