GreenMoney Interviews Series by Cliff Feigenbaum

NORTHAMPTON, MA / ACCESS Newswire / October 1, 2025 / Welcome to the latest "GreenMoney Interviews." For this issue I spoke with Marian Macindoe of Parnassus Investments, where she is a managing director, responsible for oversight of the firm’s sustainable investment approach, corporate engagement efforts and proxy voting. Parnassus has been a recognized and respected leader in sustainable investing for over 40 years. We begin our conversation here…

Cliff: What are the 4 Principles to sustainable investing for Parnassus? And your approach to each of them

Marian: At Parnassus, our approach to sustainable investing is rooted in the belief that companies that take care of the human and natural resources upon which they rely are intuitively better positioned to create long-term value. That idea has been foundational to our firm for over 40 years, and it continues to guide our investment strategy today. Our portfolios of high-quality companies have stood the test of time and continue to deliver strong long-term returns.

Our four principles, grounded in our Sustainable Investment Policy, are:

1. Cultivate a Good Workplace: We believe good companies treat workers well, and data shows that good workplaces have resulted in higher average stock returns¹ Our approach involves understanding how companies approach issues like fair labor, competitive benefits, hiring, training and promotion practices, and safety. We seek transparent human capital disclosures on workplace safety and human rights policies.

2. Minimize Environmental Impact: We believe good companies manage their environmental footprint responsibly. We look for companies that take meaningful steps to reduce emissions, conserve water, manage waste and use natural resources efficiently. We value clear disclosures on climate transition plans, science-based targets² and water stewardship, particularly in regions facing stress.

3. Promote Product Responsibility: We believe companies that prioritize product safety, supply chain integrity and responsible innovation are likely better positioned to manage risk, protect their reputation and drive long-term shareholder value. We look for strong oversight of chemical safety, including transparent disclosures, use of safer alternatives and effective risk governance. We also assess how companies are approaching the impacts of emerging technologies like AI, with a focus on responsible development and deployment.

4. Uphold Strong Governance and Ethics: Robust governance is foundational for long-term value. We engage on board composition, executive compensation, and shareholder rights, and strong, independent oversight of material sustainability issues.

New Scenes Will be Shot at The LA Kings Crypto.com Arena

The Adaptation of the Iconic Classic Hockey Movie Had Its World Premiere at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / September 30, 2025 / Dolphin (NASDAQ:DLPN), a leading entertainment marketing and premium content production company, and Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG), the global live entertainment and sports conglomerate, announced today a historic collaboration that will see the Los Angeles Kings featured in Youngblood, an adaptation of the iconic 1986 sports drama of the same name. The stars of the film will take the ice next month at the LA Kings Crypto.com arena to shoot new scenes on hockey’s biggest stage. This marks the first major production and promotional support the NHL or an NHL team has given a major motion picture in over 20 years, and the first of its kind for an independent film production. The Los Angeles Kings are coming on-board after Youngblood had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, where it received a rapturous response and rave reviews from some of the most passionate hockey fans in the world.

The film was produced by Academy Award^® and Emmy Award^® nominated Aircraft Pictures in association with Dolphin Entertainment and Canadian theatrical distributor Photon Films & Media. Directed by Academy Award^® Nominee Hubert Davis (The Well, Black Ice),the film follows hockey prodigy Dean Youngblood who joins the Hamilton Mustangs and discovers he must face off against toxic behavior on the ice and within himself to fulfill his potential as a professional hockey player.

As part of the collaboration, the filmmakers will travel to Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles to film additional footage during an upcoming Los Angeles Kings game later this week. The film is looking at a 2026 release, which marks the 40th anniversary of the original Youngblood film that starred Rob Lowe, Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves in his feature film debut. The original has gone on to become a cult classic, widely considered one of the greatest hockey films alongside such exhilarating classics of the genre like Miracle, Slapshot, and The Mighty Ducks. The timing also aligns with the Winter Olympics, where men’s hockey consistently is the top-rated sport, with the U.S. team regularly garnering up to 30 million viewers per game.

Davis’ version of the film stars Ashton James (Boxcutter, Revenge of the Black Best Friend) in the title role of Dean Youngblood, Blair Underwood (Longlegs, Deep Impact, LA Law) as his father Blane Youngblood and Shawn Doyle (The Expanse, Fargo, Big Love) as Coach Chadwick. Frequent Los Angeles Kings collaborator Christopher V. Nelson – technical advisor for films that include Miracle and The Mighty Ducks: Gamechanger – choreographed the hockey action scenes for Youngblood.

Los Angeles Kings President Luc Robitaille said, "Youngblood was more than just a film to me and my friends growing up, it was an obsession. It’s a film that continues to come up in conversations with hockey players and fans decades later. This new version updates the film in exciting ways for today’s audiences. We’re thrilled for our organization to be featured on-screen, and the opportunity to share our passion for the sport."

"We’re incredibly grateful to Luc Robitaille and the Los Angeles Kings for contributing to this timely adaptation of the original film," said Producer Anthony Leo. "Beyond hockey excellence, the Kings’ core values of inclusivity and equity align perfectly with the themes we’ve chosen to put front and centre with Youngblood."

Executive Producer Bill O’Dowd, CEO of production and marketing powerhouse Dolphin, adds: "What a win to have a Hall of Fame legend in Luc helping us to welcome the beloved character of Dean Youngblood into the NHL! We are truly excited and grateful for the endless marketing opportunities we can work on together – during the NHL season, through the Winter Olympics, and into the Stanley Cup playoffs. And like all beloved sports films, we expect Youngblood to be an evergreen title for hockey fans everywhere."

The film is produced with the financial participation of Telefilm Canada, Ontario Creates and the Shaw Rocket Fund. Worldwide rights are being represented by CAA Media Finance and Dolphin Entertainment.

About YOUNGBLOOD

Dean Youngblood was raised by his father, Blane, on a diet of toughness and hockey. When Dean is invited to join the Hamilton Mustangs, he travels to Canada from Detroit where his skill commands respect and his arrogance earns him fast enemies. Coach Chadwick, resentful of being saddled with such a toxic player, keeps Dean benched game after game. Dean’s frustration builds, culminating in a violent outburst involving rival goon Carl Racki that costs the Mustangs a significant win. As Team Captain Sutton takes him under his wing, Dean begins to buck Blane’s teachings and his growing maturity spurs a relationship with Jessie – Coach Chadwick’s daughter – who gives Dean a run for his money on and off the ice. His newfound resolve draws the ire of Racki, who provokes Dean during a game by attacking and seriously injuring Sutton. As the final game of the Eastern Final approaches, so does his showdown with Racki and Dean’s choice as to what kind of man he wants to be.

Owned and operated by AEG, the Kings began play in 1967 and now play at world-famous Crypto.com Arena in Downtown Los Angeles.

New Scenes Will be Shot at The LA Kings Crypto.com Arena

The Adaptation of the Iconic Classic Hockey Movie Had Its World Premiere at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / September 30, 2025 / Dolphin (NASDAQ:DLPN), a leading entertainment marketing and premium content production company, and Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG), the global live entertainment and sports conglomerate, announced today a historic collaboration that will see the Los Angeles Kings featured in Youngblood, an adaptation of the iconic 1986 sports drama of the same name. The stars of the film will take the ice next month at the LA Kings Crypto.com arena to shoot new scenes on hockey’s biggest stage. This marks the first major production and promotional support the NHL or an NHL team has given a major motion picture in over 20 years, and the first of its kind for an independent film production. The Los Angeles Kings are coming on-board after Youngblood had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, where it received a rapturous response and rave reviews from some of the most passionate hockey fans in the world.

The film was produced by Academy Award^® and Emmy Award^® nominated Aircraft Pictures in association with Dolphin Entertainment and Canadian theatrical distributor Photon Films & Media. Directed by Academy Award^® Nominee Hubert Davis (The Well, Black Ice),the film follows hockey prodigy Dean Youngblood who joins the Hamilton Mustangs and discovers he must face off against toxic behavior on the ice and within himself to fulfill his potential as a professional hockey player.

As part of the collaboration, the filmmakers will travel to Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles to film additional footage during an upcoming Los Angeles Kings game later this week. The film is looking at a 2026 release, which marks the 40th anniversary of the original Youngblood film that starred Rob Lowe, Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves in his feature film debut. The original has gone on to become a cult classic, widely considered one of the greatest hockey films alongside such exhilarating classics of the genre like Miracle, Slapshot, and The Mighty Ducks. The timing also aligns with the Winter Olympics, where men’s hockey consistently is the top-rated sport, with the U.S. team regularly garnering up to 30 million viewers per game.

Davis’ version of the film stars Ashton James (Boxcutter, Revenge of the Black Best Friend) in the title role of Dean Youngblood, Blair Underwood (Longlegs, Deep Impact, LA Law) as his father Blane Youngblood and Shawn Doyle (The Expanse, Fargo, Big Love) as Coach Chadwick. Frequent Los Angeles Kings collaborator Christopher V. Nelson – technical advisor for films that include Miracle and The Mighty Ducks: Gamechanger – choreographed the hockey action scenes for Youngblood.

Los Angeles Kings President Luc Robitaille said, "Youngblood was more than just a film to me and my friends growing up, it was an obsession. It’s a film that continues to come up in conversations with hockey players and fans decades later. This new version updates the film in exciting ways for today’s audiences. We’re thrilled for our organization to be featured on-screen, and the opportunity to share our passion for the sport."

"We’re incredibly grateful to Luc Robitaille and the Los Angeles Kings for contributing to this timely adaptation of the original film," said Producer Anthony Leo. "Beyond hockey excellence, the Kings’ core values of inclusivity and equity align perfectly with the themes we’ve chosen to put front and centre with Youngblood."

Executive Producer Bill O’Dowd, CEO of production and marketing powerhouse Dolphin, adds: "What a win to have a Hall of Fame legend in Luc helping us to welcome the beloved character of Dean Youngblood into the NHL! We are truly excited and grateful for the endless marketing opportunities we can work on together – during the NHL season, through the Winter Olympics, and into the Stanley Cup playoffs. And like all beloved sports films, we expect Youngblood to be an evergreen title for hockey fans everywhere."

The film is produced with the financial participation of Telefilm Canada, Ontario Creates and the Shaw Rocket Fund. Worldwide rights are being represented by CAA Media Finance and Dolphin Entertainment.

About YOUNGBLOOD

Dean Youngblood was raised by his father, Blane, on a diet of toughness and hockey. When Dean is invited to join the Hamilton Mustangs, he travels to Canada from Detroit where his skill commands respect and his arrogance earns him fast enemies. Coach Chadwick, resentful of being saddled with such a toxic player, keeps Dean benched game after game. Dean’s frustration builds, culminating in a violent outburst involving rival goon Carl Racki that costs the Mustangs a significant win. As Team Captain Sutton takes him under his wing, Dean begins to buck Blane’s teachings and his growing maturity spurs a relationship with Jessie – Coach Chadwick’s daughter – who gives Dean a run for his money on and off the ice. His newfound resolve draws the ire of Racki, who provokes Dean during a game by attacking and seriously injuring Sutton. As the final game of the Eastern Final approaches, so does his showdown with Racki and Dean’s choice as to what kind of man he wants to be.
