From the Ted Talk by Nili Gilbert and David Blood: A playbook for financing climate solutions

Unscramble the Blue Letters


(Laughter)

And so the example of aviation shwos a map for how finance needs to partner with individual sertcos to get this done. Yes, we need to invest with airlines and give them long-term capital to achieve their goals. But also spreataely, we need to invest in the solutions that they need to reach those goals. And I think that the aaiiovtn stoecr also patnis a picture of where we need to go in this troiitsann as a whole, why it’s hard and why I’m optimistic. Because the truth is that there is a lot that we're going to have to let go in this transition, and that's challenging. We need to do it in a just way. But the other truth is that there's also so much that we get to create. We need to let go of jet fuel, but we also get to invest in all of these sustainable fuels. So what I see is a massive multigenerational opportunity for growth, sustainable growth. Just imagine cietnrag a transition that is greater in scale than the industrial revolution to be delivered in less than 30 years. It's an unprecedented opportunity for impact.

Original Text


(Laughter)

And so the example of aviation shows a map for how finance needs to partner with individual sectors to get this done. Yes, we need to invest with airlines and give them long-term capital to achieve their goals. But also separately, we need to invest in the solutions that they need to reach those goals. And I think that the aviation sector also paints a picture of where we need to go in this transition as a whole, why it’s hard and why I’m optimistic. Because the truth is that there is a lot that we're going to have to let go in this transition, and that's challenging. We need to do it in a just way. But the other truth is that there's also so much that we get to create. We need to let go of jet fuel, but we also get to invest in all of these sustainable fuels. So what I see is a massive multigenerational opportunity for growth, sustainable growth. Just imagine creating a transition that is greater in scale than the industrial revolution to be delivered in less than 30 years. It's an unprecedented opportunity for impact.
