With the world moving from global warming to “global boiling,” in United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres’s dramatic description, there is more urgency than ever to unlock the capital needed for the transition to a net-zero economy. That will mean not only increasing funding commitments, but also deploying financing for climate and sustainable development in the most efficient and effective way possible. While the development community knows what it needs to do, the question now is how to do it.
