Environmental groups hope it will help wean institutional investors off industries damaging the climate; new poll shows Israelis worry about climate but not enough to sway their vote

Israel’s first fossil fuel-free stock index aims to put investors in the green (Times of Israel)

The Tel Aviv Stock Exchange on Sunday launched a fossil fuel-free index, in a move that green organizations hope will make it easier for institutional investors to wean themselves off some of the oil and gas companies that contribute to global warming.

The launch of the TA-125 Fossil Free Index marks the first market cap index on Israel’s main stock exchange that is designed to exclude oil and gas firms.

While three-quarters of those surveyed acknowledge the need to act on environmental concerns, only a third take it into account in casting their ballots
