Natural Climate Solutions (NCS) are poised to play a key role in helping the world reach net zero, with the potential to contribute ~20-30% of what is needed to stabilize the climate by 2030.
However, despite the unprecedented momentum on both public and private funding sources, there is still an outstanding question on how to fund NCS at scale.
That is why TNC has developed a funding study focused on researching and defining finance gaps for NCS and mapping out existing or new finance mechanisms that could fill those gaps across 8 focus countries (Brazil, Indonesia, China, India, Mexico, Colombia, Australia, and Gabon).
Public domestic funding is the largest driver of NCS funding in 6 of 8 focus countries.
Public domestic funding is the largest driver of NCS funding in 6 of 8 focus countries.
Half of focus countries have less than 5% of NCS funding needed.
The UNFCCC COP27 had nature at the center like never before, resulting in several major public and private commitments, mobilizing levels of funding for NCS that had not been seen previously. Additionally, private sector interest in purchasing carbon credits and in making tangible investments in NCS are skyrocketing. We need to take a hold of these opportunities and translate momentum into tangible actions that can accelerate NCS.
