Investing in a Climate for Change - Engaging the
Finance Sector
 Addressing
the serious issue of climate change requires substantial investment
in new technologies, processes and services. This investment is
not just desirable, it is essential. Without substantial and sustained
investment in clean energy and other measures now, the reality of
a global economy free of climate change impacts will remain a distant
dream.
Investment, however, requires finance in the form
of equity, loans, insurance and other options. This finance ranges
over a broad spectrum of needs – from conventional project
finance for large multi-million dollar windfarms, to micro-credit
loans for rural people to purchase efficient cookstoves. Each type
of finance comes with its own set of conditions, risks, and rewards,
and is generally provided by a different section of the finance
community.
