Climate Investor Forum 2025’s Post

🤔 Did You Know? – Investing in Climate, Sustainability, and Oceans 🌎 Looking to make a difference with your investments? Several types of bonds are designed to help protect our planet while generating potential returns! 🌿 1️⃣ Climate Bonds focus specifically on projects that combat climate change—like developing wind farms and solar energy plants. They're ideal for investors passionate about climate action and resilience. 🔆🌾 2️⃣ Sustainability-Linked Bonds (SLBs) provide flexibility. Instead of funding specific projects, they tie financial terms to a company’s overall sustainability performance. Companies are rewarded for hitting sustainability targets like reducing emissions or improving diversity. 📊♻️ 3️⃣ Blue Bonds are all about protecting our oceans. They fund marine conservation efforts, sustainable fisheries, and clean water projects, supporting United Nations SDG 14 (Life Below Water). If you care about preserving marine ecosystems, Blue Bonds are your go-to! 🌊🐟 Explore these diverse ways to invest in a sustainable future while making your portfolio greener! #DidYouKnow #ClimateBonds #SLBs #BlueBonds #SustainableInvesting #GreenFinance #SaveOurPlanet #OceansFirst #EcoInvestments #FinancialFuture #FinancEarthMission Marwa Bendaoud Patricia Pereira Diogo

💡 FACT: A significant gap exists in financing nature-based carbon removal despite its potential as a climate change solution. Increasing private investment into natural climate solutions (NCS) is vital to addressing climate, biodiversity, and land degradation challenges. 📈 🌳 Investors have a unique opportunity to accelerate the trend towards high-integrity NCS projects, sending market signals that elevate quality standards and reinforce demand for NCS-based carbon credits. The Natural Climate Solutions Alliance published an investor guide to simplify the investment process for natural climate solutions in the voluntary carbon market in six steps. Read the key points in the summary below or check out the full report here: https://lnkd.in/d3NnSgPm *** If you are looking to invest in a high-integrity terrestrial and blue carbon project, reach out to Lee Pearson to learn about our full pipeline! #naturebasedsolutions #carbonproject #mangroves #bluecarbon #southeastasia #investment #carbonfinancing

"Too often, environment policies are seen as opposed to those promoting the economy, jobs and industry. But they don’t have to clash," write Euan Ritchie, Catherine Lovelock and Sarah Bekessy in The Conversation. "Calls to fast-track clean energy projects and stop them being held up by environmental approvals are risky. We could tackle one crisis (climate change) by making another worse (biodiversity and extinction). "Australia has destroyed nearly 40% of its forests since European colonisation, with much of the remaining native vegetation highly fragmented. Because this clearing has already happened, it should be entirely possible to build renewables without damaging the homes of native species. In fact, we can do better – we can take degraded farmland, build solar on it and restore low-lying native vegetation around it to actually boost biodiversity. Requiring new renewable projects to be nature positive would encourage creative approaches to delivering infrastructure while benefiting nature.” Text from 'Out of alignment: how clashing policies make for terrible environmental outcomes' Read more at https://buff.ly/3Urkkf8

As the global demand for carbon credits grows, trust in carbon markets is paramount. The linked article by Forbes, highlights the critical role nature-based solutions play in restoring credibility to these markets. From reforestation to ecosystem restoration, these efforts not only sequester carbon but also offer long-term benefits for communities and biodiversity. Discover how transparency, quality, and effective monitoring are crucial to ensuring the legitimacy of carbon credits and their contribution to a sustainable future.

A recent article by Fred Krupp from Environmental Defense Fund in TIME highlights the power of carbon markets to uplift the Global South during an era of climate change-induced destruction.   His key takeaways: 🌱 Carbon markets fund sustainable development, including renewables and biodiversity conservation 🌎 Carbon markets speed up the pace of climate action, facilitating a race to the top ⛈ Carbon markets support the places most vulnerable to climate impacts   As Fred notes, “Climate change won’t wait for us to win a consensus for bolder action. And we can’t afford to ignore any tool that will lead to faster progress. Carbon markets can provide billions of dollars towards climate solutions.”   Boomitra heartily agrees! We’re helping farms become resilient against climate change, while providing them with more income.

🌳 🐄 🐑GeoGOBLIN: Assessing Land use change at the catchment level As we strive to define our path to Net-Zero at the national level, we must ensure that local impacts, along multiple environmental, social and economic dimensions are considered. Our research brings us closer to achieving this goal by providing a robust framework for assessing the implications of land use change across multiple impact categories at the catchment level.
