Climate Financial Innovation and Impact Investing

Course Description: Climate change is both the single greatest threat and opportunity that humanity has ever faced. According to Nature, $2.4 trillion (approximately 2.5% of the world’s economy) is needed annually for investment in the energy system alone to limit temperature rise to below 1.5 °C. Such investments could catalyze over 65 million new jobs and $26 trillion in economic impact by 2030. Because 85-90% of the capital will need to be provided by the private sector, we need to increase the pace and scale that individuals and organizations aligned with climate need to become educated and activated.

This webinar will introduce the concept of Full Spectrum Capital and how we can use Impact Investing and Financial Innovation Institute, Investor Accelerators aka Impact Investing Giving Circles and Investor Clubs to identify, educate, and activate full spectrum climate capital to increase the flows of aligned capital that will increase worker and community ownership while solving our climate crisis.
