We’re delighted that our work is featured in the latest Ceres, Inc. report, including our definition of Avoided Emissions, our pioneering 2017 methodology, "Climate Impact Assessment for Early-Stage Ventures," and the CRANE Tool, developed with Rho Impact, which is a vital resource for reducing barriers to emissions impact assessments for early-stage technologies. These acknowledgments reflect our commitment to driving capital toward impactful climate solutions. Additionally, Ceres highlighted Project Frame’s forward-looking impact approaches, including potential and planned impact, emphasizing the critical role of transparency in reducing greenwashing risks and guiding investors toward more informed decisions.

Good fun to moderate an interesting and insightful panel on decarbonisation across investments - great to be able to explore the why and what for future opportunities, as well as hear how it is and can be achieved. Thanks to Beverley Gower-Jones OBE FEI, Emelie Norling, Ella Sexton, Stanley Kwong and Hugo Kimber for sharing your knowledge and experiences, and thanks to Reset Connect for allowing Mineral and I to chair the panel! Key takeaways for me are that engagement, communication, data and patience are still central to delivering decarbonisation goals for adaptation, mitigation and climate solutions and of course, the opportunities that are out there awaiting capital! #decarbonisation #investmentmanagement #sustainablefinance

If these topics interest you, please contact Ira at ira@adaptationleader.org to learn more about this or similar events currently in the planning stages. #climateadaptation #climateaction #resilience #decarbonization #carbonmarkets #energytransition #climatefinance #corporateprograms #ESG #AdaptationLeader Bruce Piasecki Chris Carr Brian Werner

Today’s decarbonisation practices offer no financial incentive to support the energy transition to net zero, and no ambitious capital allocation targets beyond increasing flows over time. How can investors help to bridge this gap? In an academic partnership with the industry-leading Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment, our new Climate Allocation Compass, a Framework for Real-World Decarbonization, offers an ambitious investment approach based on capital needs, rigorous methods and metrics, and purposeful engagement with key change-makers.

🌍 What could a Trump election mean for greentech in Europe? 🌍 With the potential U.S. policy shifts around cleantech and the Paris Agreement goals, it's natural to feel a bit anxious about what this might mean for our global climate efforts. However, at Planet A, we believe it’s essential to reflect on what we in Europe can do to stay resilient and continue to lead the way on climate innovation. We’ve taken the time to explore what this might mean for European climate policy, technology, and investment. Our latest policy piece dives into these questions, helping clarify our role and responsibilities as a region in the face of changing political winds. 💡 Check it out, and let’s keep the conversation going on how we can protect and grow our cleantech ecosystem—no matter what challenges lie ahead.

Shipping is considered a "hard-to-abate" sector due to the large amount of fuel it requires. What's key is to establish a green hydrogen global supply chain to enable shipping to decarbonise. How can we create stronger infrastructure business cases for shipping's green fuels future? #LCAW2024 is taking place in London this week. We can join the LinkedIn livestream for Climate Investment Summit tomorrow (26 June) to listen to discussions on the latest finance strategies and prospects that will support the decarbonisation of shipping, alongside other hard-to-abate sectors like cement and steel.   https://lnkd.in/dv-umEHq

How can you leverage the NCQG to invest in a sustainable future? The NCQG is a game-changer for climate finance, but how can businesses get involved? Is it through investing in clean technologies? Supporting infrastructure projects in developing countries? ️ Maybe it's about collaborating on innovative solutions? Let's brainstorm in the comments. #earnmoreconsultants #sustainabilitymatters #earnmoreinsights #businesssustainability  #earnmore4climate #sustainableworkspaces

Interesting #climate #survey about the #voluntarycarbonmarket (VCM). More than 60% of companies purchasing credits indicate that high-integrity, high-value credits incentivize investment in decarbonization: https://lnkd.in/dnhwdjNy
