What if the goal isn’t getting a German Climate Tech unicorn? At a recent Climate Tech Meet-up, I found myself questioning the prevailing narrative. As the politician advocated for an investment landscape mirroring the US, with special tax cuts for angel investors and loosening consumer protections to foster trillion-euro Climate Tech companies, I wondered: is this truly the path to net zero? While large-scale investment has its place, we must recognise the power of bottom-up community-driven solutions. As Audre Lorde powerfully stated, "... the master's tools will never dismantle the master's house." Meaning the structures of rapid growth and laissez-faire economics, which have significantly exacerbated the climate crisis, cannot be the way to end or even mitigate it. These initiatives could become the building blocks of a new, sustainable structure. By nurturing these grassroots efforts, we create a network of solutions tailored to local needs and powered by local knowledge. To effectively address the climate crisis, we need to tackle its root causes, empowering those who will feel its consequences most acutely.
