世界上最大的一些家族企业及其基金会都在亚洲。这些慈善家充满热情,迫不及待地想用自己的财富和影响力来应对气候危机。他们的努力得到了世界经济论坛发起的善资助力地球行动(GAEA)的支持。该行动通过利用公私慈善伙伴关系,让慈善家的愿景能够得到有效落实。
Philanthropists are essential as the world ramps up its fight against climate change. Critically, they can send significant capital to the right places.
Over $3 trillion in climate finance is needed to reach net zero by 2050. Philanthropy can help drive private-public capital to catalyze change in Asia.
Climate and nature-related philanthropy is lagging behind giving to other social causes – but it could have a decisive impact on the battle to save the environment
