Last year we outlined why and how the long boom of climate tech was just getting started. Well, it got started, it got funded (2–3x the previous year), and the scaling is in full effect: the 2020s are shaping up well to be the Decarb Decade. Here’s our top 10 for this year👇🏽

I’ve mentioned to @dsaezgil when I joined @PachamaInc - climate tech in 2021 is like the internet in 1997 or crypto in 2012. We have no idea exactly HOW big it’s going to get, only that it’s going to be multiple orders of magnitude bigger. Come join the fight for our planet! 💪🌎

Excited to share this milestone at our team all-hands today!
We celebrated at today's all-team meeting a nice milestone: @PachamaInc has helped fund the removal/reduction of 1M tonnes of CO2e with forests conservation/restoration worldwide.🌳🌍 It's a tinny % of global emissions, but a big validating step for our vision. Now, to 10M!! 🚀

👀 this looks like a startup "up-and-to-the-right" growth chart. It's actually Microsoft's stock price over the past 5 years, remarkable how consistent it has been
Our native forests are unique, beautiful and important, particularly in the fight against climate change. And today we've announced our plan to end the logging of our native forests – ensuring a total of nearly two million hectares will be protected for future generations.

I came to the US on an h1b visa. I’d like to think I’ve been a net positive for the country. RT if you or a family member are also an immigrant who has been net positive for the US

This is stunning: Nearly half of the Q1 decline in GDP can be attributed to healthcare, which is presumably delaying of elective procedures. It's a strange reality that in the midst of a pandemic, we have a healthcare-led recession.

Today we let our team know they have flexibility to work from home (or anywhere) through the end of 2020. My personal opinions about WFH have been turned upside down over the past 2 months. I expect this will have a lasting influence on the future of work ... and home. Stay safe.
