      • Welcome message

        Dear Climate Players,

         

        We want by this OpenDoTank,

        • sponsorized by stakeholders and Philanthropists
        • based on Membership Offer

        to Deliver the best mix of inputs from:

        CLIMATE Science Knowledge x KnowHow Transfer x Finance x Solution (Tech, Nature based & Policies) to fulfil Healthier GDPs.

         

        ✅ We do believe that ClimateTech & GreenTech Products & Solutions will reshape both: the viability of Planet & providing all the "green quality & purpose jobs" for billions of People. Giving all Stakeholders the same sense, in this massive transformative Era.

        ✅ Go beyond only accelerating the investment process by gathering support for the 3 Challenges Pledge (cf bellow).

         

        By breaking silos, we support and animate the multi-expertises, sectors & cross-border process for:

        ✅ Decoding the Climate frontiers of Investment, GeoPolitics, Tech and Inclusive Societal implementation.

        ✅ Accelerating the Makers: Climate Entrepreneurs & Corporates for a NetZero Planet.

        ✅ Supporting the Switchers: the Chief Climate Officers, in add Policy Makers & Citizens for the NetZero Era.

        • When Private & Public Sectors inspire each other.
        • When Cross-border Practices and Investments thesis are taking the risk to save Humanity's opportunities.
        • When Earth-friendly & Inclusive practices are packaged for a whole capital life cycle: Healthier GDP.

        To go further, just see bellow the 10 Points Manifesto + 3 Challenges Pledge, that motivate the creation of ClimateTechFOUNDATION.ORG

        Manifesto
      • Manifesto

        Here, we share share with you some thoughts and considerations that bring us to bootstrap ClimateTechFOUNDATION.ORG

        With a passion to contribute solving and aligning the Climate Equation (Physics) with the Business Equation (Economics). That is raising the NetZero World by Ethics.

         

        The science is clear:

        • All the models we have designed since 3 centuries have permitted for more people to enjoy a better quality of life. But with increasing gaps between developed and developing countries: Many milestones remain to share a whole sustainable Humanity.
        • Our Global Economic Model of Development, with a core engine based on Carbon Intensity, generates too much emissions and environment stress, compromising the resilience of Billions of People, and instabilities for the whole Mankind.
        • The Earth Physics is already reacting and adapting. This is what we touch by climate/meteorological alerts in every part.
        • Now, Anthropic Climate change is already here, for decades, with 5 consequences for us: preservation/restoration, mitigation, adaptation, resilience and ethical governance.
        • Our whole current (and un-sustainable) model of development is plugged on Earth Resources & Physics.
        • We know that we have to act and re-adapt this model before its too late. And we still really not on the good tracks. 

        The Finance must be clearer:

        • In a limited World, with limited resources, our Economic Model is based like 'un-limit' is the norm, and for eternity.
        • The Model must be deeply changed, fast and at scale. Even if we may know 'THE how', the willingness is not enough. We must change mindsets of all the value chain players, starting by ...Investors.
        • In 2015, for the first time, Governments acted it, Diplomatically and Morally, by the Paris Agreement.
        • From 2015 to 2021, a great part of the Civil Societies demonstrated they are ready. But other stakeholders already alert Governments and the Private sector to embed more inclusive and just policies,for the 1.5°C promize and netzero goals.
        • In November 2021, The recent Glasgow Pact acted a significative milestones convergence, in particular by Blended Finance Mechanisms and Financial Coalitions. This is a great first step, for the Climate Financial Community.
        • In 2022, We want here to say it clearer, to the whole Finance Community :
          • Climate is not an asset class, or an option for specialists, neither a Moral action for Happy-Few, Philanthropists. Climate is THE Meta Asset that impacts all those we have, and we will manage for the future dividends and prosperity.
          • If Science Based Targets, Gold Standards, ESG reporting norms, and Impact Investing gain more visibility, it’s time to go faster, and embed every practitioner in the loop. Green Taxonomies should not only converge, but raise within greater standards I maybe towards the new inspirational model of Earth-Shareholder powered by Patagonia, since 14 sept 2022.
          • All Investors, from small to great ones, from private to public, must practice Finance with this Meta Climate Filter. It’s about considering that Climate is on the Top of our Financial Criteria. We invite all players to decide with a Climate 1st Purpose.

        The Solutions we need are alread Popping-Up everywhere. Now we must create the suitable and cross-borders regulation to scale them fast enough:

        • From the massive and distributed Divest / Invest dynamic, we should consider a real mix composition: Technologies, Nature based solution and Inclusive & Just GeoPolicies.
        • All Investors must transform their approach, converging to (in)direct netzero targets. That is Sustainable Growth for Healthier GDP.
        • Being a "XXI Century Investor" is becoming a "Climate Investor".

        We want here to contribute to this challenging Era, by training batches of Economic Players (multi-profils) toward Climate & Investment. That is ClimateTechFOUNDATION.ORG, an OpenDoTank Foundation, an extended ecosystem from ClimateTechVenture.

         

        To go beyond, Here are 10 considerations in a nutshell:

        • Starting from the Climate Solution Co-Designers (as Entrepreneurs, Investors and Consumer-Citizens we are) we should all, as stakeholders of this Planet, practice humbly our own and respective responsibilities, without blaming others.
        • Understanding the real-life translation that align “Science, Finance and Solutions” are one of the most difficult job to do.
        • On this common pathway, we (all regions) need to find-out our own ways, because as human we make mistake. In a deeper inter-connected world learning from those is our responsibility. It is conditioning the future of Humanity.
        • Learning by doing: Deploying by continuous updating our own investment thesis, philosophy of Energies mix towards Low-Carbon Economies. And avoiding the arrogance, or even the ignorance pretension, that the new climate friendlier solutions we are developping are the real best ones (avoiding over-marketing, with the 'green-washing effects').
        • The true willingness is more important than branding to “have” THE “good solution”, just because: there is no “worst solution”, only bad ones. Each new-comer, or change maker, generates also its own negative side effects' unpredictability. This is the learning by doing Effect.
        • To find the “good solutions”, strongly believe that sustainable ones are always findable, even when:
          • short-term solution seems more bankable
          • the situation seems tricky or uncomfortable (invest/divest) equilibrium
        • Inclusivity is THE way for change management shifts, because: building or investing for sustainability may be painful in practice (from the change makers them-selves to the players and people challenged: the social cost & the economics risks of transition are part of the pathways. We have to keep long-term view, and support good guidances when the trick zones come).
        • Always searching for the simplicity in the sense of action, as the spinoff of the complexity reflection, because “simplicity” neither means “short-cutting” in the duo "Think+Do" Tank Actions.
        • Our compass to do so:
          • Designing the best mix of “Having and Being”: the continuous re-booting mindset to cultivate for progress.
          • Acceptability to re-think “Earning, Owning and Becoming”: beyond our job journey or career, it is closer to a LifeStyle purpose and pathway.
          • Courage to open the door for new habits to manage our Time career, as the tremendous brick to co-build
        • 'Climate Time resource', this is what we all have. 'Asset owner' of this Time, this is what we all are.

        ⏳ Time is our limited resource, for Investment solutions.

         

        💡 Creativity & Entrepreneurship are our unlimited source of innovations.

         

        🚀 Are you ready for change? Now, Action!
