Vanguard stated that shareholders submitted 359 ESG proposals for 2023 and 290 in 2022.

“The funds supported just 2 percent of such proposals in the 2023 proxy year, down from 12 percent in the 2022 proxy year,” the investment advisors said.

Interesting the ESG proposals come from certain stock holders. Maybe the other stock holders are using their outdoor voice.

I had a financial advisor at Ameriprise in 2021, which I got into a discussion with her about keeping my funds out of such investments. She was pissed off and told me that most investors welcome doing the right thing when investing.

I immediately moved everything to a different advisor who follows my wishes to the letter without a lecture. He also has proven to be much better at his job.
