Climate Catalyst

At Climate Catalyst we believe that a just, prosperous world is possible 🌍 But to get there we need to speed up and scale action, and tackle the biggest climate challenges we face, together! We work with diverse partners (both seasoned climate leaders and new actors) to take on some of the most pivotal climate challenges today. For example we’re working to drive the decarbonisation of the steel sector in India and push the European aviation industry to tackle its climate impacts.

How can #India decarbonise 10-12% of its #emissions while maintaining its #industrialgrowth? The recently released "Greening the Steel Sector in India: Roadmap and Action Plan" by the Ministry of Steel outlines the practical and actionable pathways to this ambitious transition. Through innovative public procurement strategies and ambitious hydrogen plans, the roadmap also offers interesting insights for anyone interested in industrial transformation, climate action, or emerging market leadership. Learn more about this report and its implications in the blog linked below from our Senior Policy Manager Nandan Sharalaya.

Interested in the latest updates from our work tackling tackling the #climate impacts of European #aviation? Check out the article below for a quick summary on our work and what lies ahead from our aviation programme lead, Emma Richardson.

“Genuine collaboration is about getting the right people in the room, co-developing a strategy and executing it together... Climate Catalyst is an incredible model for that - Nathaniel Keohane” We recently sat down with Nathaniel Keohane, the president of leading think tank Center for Climate and Energy Solutions (C2ES), a key figure in the formation of Climate Catalyst and member of our Strategic Council. Nat is a seasoned economist with 20 years of energy and environmental policy experience in academia, government, and the nonprofit sector. Presented here are 5 key takeaways from this Q&A. We encourage you to dive deeper into the discussion linked below, featuring further insights on the importance of a market-based approach to climate policy in Asia, the current state of policy in the EU, how best climate philanthropy can unlock impactful solutions at scale and more! https://lnkd.in/dxbmMZkb

Aviation decarbonisation is one of the tough nuts we’re working on cracking Climate Catalyst. One of the drivers we’re working on is to empower investors to engage and influence. Kudos to Altiorem and our team for collaboration this. #decarbonisingaviation #aviation #sustainablefinance

Learning is a core value of ours at Climate Catalyst. Learning from both our own experiences and the incredible organisations we partner with to drive sustainable change. Check out this insightful article that explores the need for a diverse array of investment into the highest integrity fuels and how sustainable finance can help accelerate the shift to these cleaner technologies. Thank you to Altiorem for hosting several resources curated through our work tackling the climate impacts of European aviation. You can explore these resources on their platform below as well as several other insightful pieces across a variety of topics and key issues.

As demand for #steel continues to grow globally, so does the industry’s #climate footprint. This industry currently accounts for close to 10% of global climate pollution, and this is set to rise. We believe the #steelindustry can produce this commodity without further damaging the climate. India is the second largest producer of steel, and is a critical geography for the #greensteel transition. That’s why we founded the India Green Steel Network (#IGSN) to work with a diverse group of stakeholders in #India and accelerate the #decarbonisation of the Indian steel sector through research, partnerships and collaboration across both domestic and international stakeholders. Learn more about our work in India below and get in touch if you’re interested in collaborating towards a more #sustainable Indian steel industry. 

Sustainable aviation fuels (#SAFs) are a key component of the transition to a greener #aviationindustry globally. But what exactly are the different kinds of SAFs, and how can institutional #investors support the most sustainable and scalable ones? We teamed up with Principles for Responsible Investment to answer all of this and more in this useful explainer: “Charting a greener course: The role of Sustainable Aviation Fuels in the net-zero transition”. Explore the complete #report below, full of important information to help investors understand what SAFs are out there, how they’re produced, how international initiatives impact their supply, and what investors’ portfolio companies can do to accelerate this transition.  Consider sharing this value-packed resource across your networks!
