🗣️ 'As the leader of a business coalition, I couldn’t agree more. Business bears significant responsibility for the world’s emissions, yet it also possesses numerous avenues for reducing and halting these emissions - be it through advancements in technology, investment strategies, or providing influential leadership to catalyze action among markets and policymakers.' Our CEO, María Mendiluce, delves into these perspectives in her latest article, 'New National Climate Plans Must Act As Economic Strategies,' featured in Forbes. 👉 Read more https://lnkd.in/ecg5r2uu #WMBC #ClimateAction #NDCs

Co-Executive Chair of Galvanize Climate Solutions. NYT Bestselling Author for Cheaper, Faster, Better.
The ability to change our climate trajectory is immense and exciting. Over my career, I have seen firsthand how capitalism incentivizes innovation and competition. By directing capital toward companies and projects that align with climate goals, investors can shape the market and create a demand for sustainable practices. This, in turn, encourages governments and policymakers to implement regulations that promote clean energy and reduce carbon emissions. Investors have an irreplaceable role to play in our path to net zero, which is why my co-founder Katie Hall and I started Galvanize Climate Solutions. We saw the need for a climate-focused global investment firm laser-focused on long-term value. https://lnkd.in/ewRi_aMF

ESG & Responsible Investment Advisor to Boards and CEOs | ESG Capital Raising Strategy | Due Diligence | Non Executive Director
There were quite a few highlights from this report I helped deliver with Kate Donnelly at Investor Group on Climate Change (IGCC) - but they really came home recently when the 'same' questions were being asked in a different policy setting - "How do we unlock capital for First Nations communities?" So - can we take the learnings from one sector to another? I think we can. A couple of key takeaways from our climate discussion are noted below (from a previous post) - can be pivoted towards the opportunity of Indigenous Economic Self determination : - Government has a lead role to play to get the settings right, ideas included: i) invest into social infrastructure as a strong community = strong economic opportunity ii) continue to play the connector role : business with investors and community iii) allocate transitional capital to leverage private finance iv) reframe superannuationon taxonomy for climate finance by including a broad definition to allow innovation in investments to flourish - Stakeholder voice will add value to the transition. Giving voice to the key stakeholders in decisions and change will help deliver new solutions& ideas. some ideas presented included: i) include the voice of First Nations people and community in decision making bodies, such as Boards ii) host regular discussion forums with "voice equity" to allow discussions (as opposed to consultations) iii) design governance models that incorporate shared upside equity https://lnkd.in/guBiWetU
