Plenty more fish in the sea?
Most of us have been told, after one heartbreak or another, that there are plenty more fish in the sea.
Not according to the absorbing Netflix documentary “Seaspiracy” there aren’t. The film, made by passionate environmentalist Ali Tabrizi, is a sobering watch and so full of dispiriting facts and figures about the poor state of the world’s oceans that it leaves the viewer struggling for hope.
Reflecting on the news last week
You don’t need to go far to hear horror stories related to climate change despair and destruction. Last week we saw the UN statement on the ‘triple emergency‘ the world faces, plus the impacts of climate change being felt in Texas and California.

How can my New Year’s Resolutions help to save the planet?
As we get stuck into 2021, and leave the madness that was 2020 behind, many will have thought about their New Year’s Resolutions. We imagine that the old classics of ‘lose that bit of weight’ and ‘eat less junk food’ might have already fallen by the wayside. We don’t blame you!
Our founder’s take on Johnson’s 10-point green plan
We’ve heard some very bold announcements from an apparently rejuvenated Boris Johnson this week. These are welcome, and encouraging, but we need to remember that a vision without action is merely a daydream.
How can investors ensure they are making a real difference?
Flick through to any financial pages and it’s hard to miss the buzz around ESG. The term itself has been around for a while and, up until recently, investing this way was a niche for only the most sustainably-minded investor.
Financial Planning Week 2020
Financial Planning Week 2020 is underway and we are offering free one-hour consultations across the country.
We’ve exhausted the earth’s ecological budget for the year. For the next 4 months, we’ll be ringing up a deficit as the planet can no longer play catch up with our demands
This Saturday, it’s Earth Overshoot day, so at Path Financial we’re exploring our ecological footprint, calculating our own personal overshoot day1, sharing ideas on how to reduce our consumption, and doing what gets us out of bed every day: talking to people about moving their money to invest sustainably.

Why Westminster’s £3bn green investment package proves it’s down to people, not politics, to save our planet
The summer budget offered an opportunity for the government to show itself as a leader on the world stage by acting boldly and with genuine purpose in the fight against climate change. Yet instead of innovation, we’ve been gifted insulation.
The Make My Money Matter campaign launches today
Wishing Richard Curtis and his team at Make My Money Matter well with the launch of their campaign today. The public does not want to make a financial return from lung cancer and climate destruction. They find it immoral and repugnant. Yet most workplace pensions and personal pension fund managers persist in investing in tobacco and fossil fuel companies.
COVID-19 has shown us that investing in polluting companies is not only morally wrong, but also unlikely to be good financial sense
Here at Path Financial, we have always believed in the value of positive investments and the power they hold when changing the world for the better. While the terrible impact of COVID-19 on our communities is unequivocal, this pandemic has allowed a glimpse into what the world could look like if we took serious steps towards climate change.
Let’s build back better – our Covid-19 message
Much has changed and so quickly with unimagined challenges in work and home life facing so many of us in so many ways. Please get in touch with us if you want a friendly voice to talk to about any pension and investment concerns you may be experiencing due to the current market turmoil. We have counselled many people through market unrest and difficult times, and are here to help should you need it.
Why we’re looking forward to the upcoming Make My Money Matter campaign
We were thrilled to have front row seats for a recent video conference with film screenwriter, producer and director Richard Curtis. He has a long list of film credits to his name, but the subject was all about how moving your money has the power to change the world a subject close to our hearts here at Path Financial.
