Grants to this Grantee
for general operating support
The Carbon Tracker Initiative aims to raise awareness about the financial risks associated with fossil fuel investments. This grant will provide general operating support to the organization for carrying out its core functions, including producing financial analysis of the coal, gas, and oil industries. The initiative provides alternative assumptions about the future of energy, based on a two-degree scenario, allowing financial decision makers to challenge the flows of capital going into high-cost, high-carbon projects, and redirect these funds to less carbon intensive solutions.
