๐ The UN gives (carbon) credit where itโs due #223
A new framework to standardize and facilitate emissions credit trading
Itโs Friday - phew! We recognize itโs hard to focus on long range climate risk, or our inboxes, with the real calamity of war - our hearts go out to Ukraine, and everyone near and abroad affected by the specter of further conflict.
Itโs been quite the ride over the last two (incredible) years of Climate Tech VC. We started in the early throes of the pandemic, when the world began waking up to how the exponential curve of COVID parallels whatโs in store with the climate crisis. Since then, $59B in venture capital funding has catalyzed the acceleration of 1,000+ climate tech startups. The climate communityโs talent, technology, solutions, and stamina inspire confidence that the exponential decarbonization inflection has only just begun.
At CTVC our mission is to foster and accelerate early stage climate innovation through market data and storytelling inspiration. So far, our volunteer team has broken news on hot deals & funds, curated leading perspectives from investors & innovators, generated insights & market maps, and built open tools & resources for data transparency.
