10 billion for Ethical Investments

5 billion to invest in several large international companies

Tesla Developing wall batteries to store solar

power

Rolls Royce Developing mini reactors to power homes through nuclear

fission

5 billion to invest in many smaller start ups

Bluefield Solar Income Invest in a range of small solar power

companies

Pattern energy group US based company providing utilities

through wind power

Victron Energy group Provide solar panels to developing countries on a “pay as you go”

energy system.

Covanta Cleanly turn waste into energy

$10 billion invested ethically with expected returns of $30 billion

$2 billion project with 30 million for brand recognition

and the rest for subsidies

Carbon Consumers

• Companies will pay a license fee to be able to put the carbon

consumers footprint on their products, if they meet the minimum

standards.• Companies are rated by 'ET carbon

rankings' a company rating companies' carbon footprints for

free.• Based off the Fair trade business

model, carbon consumers will be self-sufficient within fifteen years: well within our twenty year range.

Renewable Energy

• In order to help resolve these issues we have decided to invest $30 billion to solar and $20 billion to wind energy.

• Investment in solar energy will go to companies like Tesla, JinkoSolar, Energise Africa, and etc.

• Investment in wind energy will go to companies like Vestas and Pattern Energy Group Inc.

Energy consumption and CO2

The Falling Prices of Renewable Energy

• IRENA (International Renewable Energy Agency) say all renewable energy technologies should be competitive on price with fossil fuels by 2020.

If you are feeling generous...

•Goal set for $100 billion raised, but only $10.3 billion pledged

•Example: climate-resilient port built in Nauru

$10 billion allocated to transport

If you want more than your money back...

• $7.5 billion investment

• Sustainable development bond

• Colombia national urban transport

• Afghanistan rural roads and bridges

• Potential to both mitigate and adapt

Not all transport is equal

*Assumes bicycle has only a s ingle rider, average occupancy for London Underground and city cars. Emissions from bicycles are from agriculture

activi ties and transport required for food in an average diet, which is contestable as a emission source for this mode of tra nsport.Data from:https ://www.theguardian.com/environment/datablog/2009/sep/02/carbon-emissions-per-transport-type

• Health and other economic benefits estimated in the UK to be higher than the sale value of all bicycles combined

• Relatively low cost, can offer high percentage of subsidy that reaches a large amount of population at a reasonable value

• $2 billion subsidy towards 5 million bicycles per year over 5 years• $500 million for adverts and social media campaigns
