One of the fastest growing areas of investment management is 'socially responsible investing' where the manager of the mutual funds overweights companies with high sustainability or other social scores, and underweights companies with poor scores. By influencing the amount of $ invested in these companies based on social scores, investors can influence management to pursue positive, sustainable strategies (to attract more investors). Here is a definition (Wikpedia) and a web site for more info: Socially responsible investing describes an investment strategy which combines the intentions to maximize both financial return and social good.

In general, socially responsible investors favor corporate practices with practices in line with environmentalism, consumer protection, quality, and diversity. Some (but not all) also avoid businesses involved in alcohol, tobacco, gambling, weapons and the military industry, and/or abortion.
