Here’s the complete list of all the LED stocks that are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) as of 09/23/20.
We put it together at Carbon Collective because we wanted a way to invest in all of the companies building solutions to climate change. From renewable energy stocks to recycling stocks.
For humanity to stop climate change, we need to use electricity far more efficiently. LEDs are generally 10-20x more efficient than incandescent light bulbs. According to Project Drawdown, LED lighting has the potential to reduce global carbon emissions by 16-18 gigatons.
Disclaimer: We had trouble finding all of these stocks in one place online. So, we built the following list. We’re publishing it purely for informational purposes and not a recommendation to buy or sell.

About Carbon Collective:
We built Carbon Collective because we couldn’t find anywhere to invest our retirement savings that made both ethical and financial sense in the age of climate change.
So we put together the world’s first series of climate-friendly, diversified, low-fee investment portfolios and teamed up with a world class online brokerage platform to automatically manage them.
Imagine an index fund in a world without fossil fuels. That’s how we build our portfolios. We swap the high-carbon parts of the stock market (fossil fuels, dirty utilities, airlines, etc.) with the companies building solutions to climate change (renewable energy, circular economy, energy efficiency, etc.).
