Our Planet. Action Required.
Our core mission is to enable founders, via their technology companies, who address the Climate Emergency; and its impact on the environment, the communities and the social fabric of tomorrow.
The world is heating up. The effects of climate change and a warming planet are increasingly severe and have a wide-ranging impact on the environment, ecosystems and our economy. Rising temperatures have led to heatwaves and changes in weather patterns; in turn causing more frequent and extreme weather events, such as hurricanes, droughts, floods, and wildfires. Increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere are also being absorbed by the oceans. This causes ocean acidification, which harms marine life.
Rising sea-levels, extreme weather events, and changes in agricultural productivity can lead to the displacement of communities and social unrest. The cost of addressing these issues are substantial, affecting industry, infrastructure, and the economy. Tackling the Climate Emergency, therefore, is also sound business practice.
Real Assets industries are at the cornerstone of this dynamic. According to Architecture 2030, they account for more than 40% of global carbon dioxide emissions. By cultivating a shared dedication to mitigating greenhouse gases, the real assets sectors hold the potential, not only to minimize their environmental footprint, but also to pave the way for a more sustainable and resilient future for communities worldwide.
That is our mission and one that is shared by our investors, partners and portfolio companies.
