CLEAN AIR FUND | CONVENING ON FINANCING SECTORAL ACTIONS FOR BLACK CARBON REDUCTION

​Clean Air Fund and Human Planet are convening a curated session, bringing together senior representatives from multilateral development banks, development finance institutions and private finance, together with black carbon solutions practitioners, to explore near-term pathways for ‘Financing Sectoral Actions for Black Carbon Reduction’.

​Black carbon, commonly referred to as ‘soot’, is a component of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) produced through the incomplete burning of fossil fuels and biomass. It is one of the super pollutants alongside methane, HFCs and tropospheric ozone that are responsible for half of global warming. Due to their short lifetime in the atmosphere, reducing super pollutant emissions can quickly reduce warming and act as our emergency brake for the climate system. More information is available here: https://www.cleanairfund.org/black-carbon-hub.

​This is a closed-door, invite-only event that will bring together financiers and practitioners to share and test innovative solutions for closing the structural financing gap in black carbon reduction. The event will be delivered in a hybrid mode, so please register even if you cannot attend in person.
