About us
Climate&Capital was conceived as a means to prompt meaningful action on climate issues. We’re here to inform, embolden, and connect a diverse, ever-growing cohort of entrepreneurs, executives, financiers, academics, investors, activists, NGOs, and policymakers — all of whom have a vested interest in building and influencing the climate economy. We know that’s a bold mission. But we’re living in an era of urgent transformation — one that demands individual and collective global action. To battle the climate crisis, we all must claim new responsibility — and be willing to operate on unfamiliar ground. This is about action for all, about dissolving national borders, and about giving new consideration to cooperation among institutions and corporations. Yes, we’re hopeful. We’re inspired by the change we see around us. Where others see darkness ahead, we remember the incredible leaps humankind has made in the face of adversity. Unlike other media companies, we’re climate-first. We don’t cover everything under the ESG sun; we focus on agents of change and the business of the climate economy. Indeed, that is more than everything. Because global warming touches everyone, everywhere. We believe the world of business and finance can do exactly what it should: direct capital toward climate solutions. Our job is to promote that process by informing, encouraging, and bringing together individuals and organizations engaged in developing climate solutions. The world has reached an unprecedented inflection point, and Climate&Capital endeavors to address the needs of this urgent transformation; to promote the remarkable individual and collective initiatives that have distinguished human development throughout history.

“Companies in five counties vented millions of pounds of natural gas and other toxins into the air.” An analysis of the industry's own data shows that only 6% of the methane gas released into our atmosphere comes from actual leaks. With the rest coming from intentional releases. It's a better characterization to use the term "methane gas releases." While the industry would love for you to keep saying leaks, the facts show that the majority of methane pollution from the U.S. oil and gas industry results from intentional venting and flaring, which are not accidents but part of normal oil field operations. Sharon Wilson and Justin Mikulka explain why those methane “leaks” are not accidents. https://lnkd.in/eFWK7Pjv Climate & Capital Media S&P Global, Reuters , The Guardian, New Scientist, Ceres, Inc., Inside Climate News The World Bank #climatechange #climatechangenews #climate #climatenews #climatereporting #climatedata #climatereport #climateinvesting #climateeconomy #climatefinace #climatescience #climateeducation #climatecompliance #esg #esgnews #esgreport #esgdata #esgreporting #esginvesting #esgfinance #esgeconomy #economy #investing #finance #greeninvesting #greeneconomy #greenfinance #greennews #jobs #jobnews #jobreport #linkedinjobs #usa #biden #presidentbiden #2024election #linkedin #linkedinnews #methane #methanepollution #methaneproduction #methaneleaks #oilandgas #oilandgasindustry #oilandgaspollution #pollution

Around the world, central banks have started adapting their policies and frameworks to address the profound implications of climate issues on inflation. However, the US Federal Reserve is lagging far behind its peers. As the European Central Bank (ECB) increasingly positions its climate and nature agenda as part of its core price stability remit, the Fed continues to delay starting to account for climate in its inflation management, risking declining relevance in a sustainability-driven financial future.

"And ultimately, the IRA’s funds are congressionally appropriated, meaning a Republican victory in the White House come November would still require a Republican-led Congress to repeal or limit funds formally. Until the 2024 elections are over, investing with the IRA’s clean energy provisions is too lucrative to pass up." Some investors are worried Donald Trump will repeal the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) — which funded over $300 billion in clean energy investments across the U.S. last year and has created over 300,000 clean energy jobs as of June 20 — if elected in November, according to experts who spoke at last month’s Greenfin 24 conference. But will a full-scale repeal of codified law truly happen, ending President Joe Biden’s clean energy ambitions?

This week's Five Climate Stories to Watch as chosen by the Climate & Capital Media team: 1. Scientists confirm that the earth’s average temperatures have topped 1.5 degrees hotter than pre-fossil fuel for a 12-month stretch. 2. A Trump return to the White House would permanently scar the planet following a detailed plan to dismantle US environmental efforts. 3. A landslide victory for the UK center-left is a mandate for the Labour-led government to take bold climate action after a long period of drift. 4. Beijing plans to invest $800 billion in power grid upgrades to accommodate the country’s rapid shift from coal to renewables. 5. In a shift that comes earlier than projected, wind power alone becomes a bigger energy source for Americans than coal. https://lnkd.in/gzAPn65 Follow Climate & Capital Media for stories focused on the business of climate change — the intersection of investment and sustainability.

What’s getting in the way of transition finance? "The barriers to transition finance are often connected and mutually reinforcing. This has arguably hindered progress — but the good news is that potential solutions are equally interrelated. If financial institutions and other stakeholders can make strides in overcoming one barrier, others are likely to fall too." Transitioning to net zero requires significant emissions reductions in high-emitting and hard-to-abate sectors. Yet, credible transition finance that aligns with stakeholder expectations for real-world emissions reductions and meets banks’ internal governance and financial requirements remains elusive. In this article, Dr. Elizabeth Harnett, Tricia Holland, and Kaitlin Crouch-Hess explore the barriers to deploying transition finance at the necessary scale and speed. https://lnkd.in/eE3rtxqd Climate & Capital Media Climate Bonds Initiative, Standard Chartered, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation – SMBC Group, Barclays, New Zealand Bar Association | Ngā Ahorangi Motuhake o te Ture (NZBA) Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ), COP28 UAE, UN Climate Change United Nations RMI #climatechange #climatechangenews #climate #climatenews #climatereporting #climatedata #climatereport #climateinvesting #climateeconomy #climatefinace #climatescience #climateeducation #climatecompliance #esg #esgnews #esgreport #esgdata #esgreporting #esginvesting #esgfinance #esgeconomy #economy #investing #finance #greeninvesting #greeneconomy #greenfinance #greennews #jobs #jobnews #jobreport #linkedinjobs #usa #biden #presidentbiden #2024election #linkedin #linkedinnews #transitionfinance #climatetransition #climatebanking #climatebank #greenbanks #greenbanking #esgbanking #banking

"The US Federal Reserve's reluctance to embrace climate as a critical financial risk carries a substantial risk to the role of the US dollar as the global fiat currency. Unless the Fed abandons its outdated approach to climate, initiatives to de-dollarize the global economy, once thought unfeasible, may eventually be viewed as more viable than waiting on action from the Fed." Around the world, central banks are adopting policies to address climate change's impact on inflation, while the US Federal Reserve continues to delay starting to account for climate in its inflation management, risking declining relevance in a sustainability-driven financial future.
