Understanding Climate Finance
Climate Finance is finally getting the spotlight that it deserves on the global stage as a method to combat climate change. But what is climate finance? Is it really helping?
My name is Faheem Noor Ali and I am exploring the intersection of climate and capitalism to see how we can invest in climate while not treating it as a charitable expense, but as a reality to which we need to respond.
Understanding Climate Finance
US and Canada Climate Finance Policy
In this final session of the Climate Finance Roundtable on May 27th, Faheem Noor Ali moderates a discussion on US and Canadian Climate Finance policy for emerging markets. Introductory remarks are made by Ambassador Patricia Fuller (Ambassador for Climate Change Government of Canada) and she is joined in a lively discussion with Dr. Sue Szabo (Global Affairs Canada), Elizabeth Lien (US Department of Treasury) and Aparna Shrivastava (US Development Finance Corporation). In this session, we learn about the opportunities and challenges in developing climate finance policy and how both governments are looking forward to climate finance commitments and how those commitments create an enabling environment for businesses.
