Emerging Opportunities
Extending our approach beyond climate change
We extend our approach into areas beyond climate change where leadership, trusted information, coordination, and institutional resilience are critical.
These emerging opportunities, including work in arts and culture, technology, mental health, and civic resilience, reflect a core belief: people and communities thrive when they have access to trusted information, effective institutions, and meaningful opportunities to participate in shaping the future.
Atmospheric Impact Framework
Climate capital is scarce, with no common way to compare one solution’s atmospheric impact to another’s. The Atmospheric Impact Framework (AIF) builds a common unit for climate impact, proven first in carbon markets.
Super Pollutants: Contrails & Methane
Overlooked climate pollutants, such as methane and aviation contrails, cause significant, near-term global warming. We're exploring how to finance methane abatement in oil and gas, primarily in emerging economies, and evaluating marginal wells in the United States. We also support research to develop smarter flight routes that reduce persistent contrails by avoiding the atmospheric conditions where they form.
Women in Private Equity
Women remain significantly underrepresented in private equity. We support efforts to better understand and address this gap through research, data tracking, and reporting on North American private equity. This work aims to document differences in career paths across the industry and help identify opportunities to foster greater gender representation.
