More on SRI

here's a story about wal-mart. way down at the bottom there's a brief mention of a shareholder resoloution. Obviously, this is the kind of action that will make SRI shareholder activism real.
here is a list of shareholder resoloutions started by faith based groups. A good example is the 3M china principles, where sharholders have proposed a quite impressive laundry list of ethical behaviors in regards to working with china: minimum working age, living wage, no copreal punishment, environmental standards, freedom of worker expression and so on. Good read, that one.
Another sharholder resoloution about china was filed with disney. This one is also a good read. It looks like it got 8.89% of the shareholder vote.
Here is one that I really like, because it has to do with the maximum wage theory (or my similar maximum reletive wage theory). It's the shareholders of Cisco asking for a reporting of thier executive compensaion compared the lowest paid employee, and asks the company to offer an explination if the gap increases.
