In this episode of The Path to Green: Taxonomies in Action, Barney sits down with Zofia Wetmańska, Taxonomy Manager at Climate Bonds, to unpack how taxonomies help fight greenwashing and build market credibility, and why that matters more than ever in today’s fast-growing sustainable finance landscape.
Join us for the first of our 'Meet the Experts' mini-series! To kick us off, we explore the importance of credibility in climate action plans with Meggie Eloy, Senior Analyst at Climate Bonds. Discover how realistic pathways and collaborative efforts can lead to sustainable impact.
In this second episode of The Path to Green: Taxonomies in Action, Barney sits down with Bridget Boulle, our Principal Technical Advisor, to explore the Climate Bonds Taxonomy – a trusted, science-based guide for sustainable investment.
Discover why the taxonomy was created, how it’s structured, how it has inspired others, and why it’s critical to scaling credible green finance worldwide.
Think about the food in your kitchen... A lot of us look at the nutritional information when we buy food, but not the carbon footprint.
While us as consumers may even avoid certain food groups with an environmental rationale, wouldn't you like to see changes across the food value chain, which can mitigateemissions at post-production levels, all the things the consumers can’t control product-to-product?
With post-farm emissions rising rapidly, a publicconsultation process started earlier this year for the Climate Bonds Food Value Chain Criteria. And to celebrate its launch, we discuss the finer details with Sustainability Analyst Aishwarya Sankar.
An economics, geography and Spanish lesson all rolled into one on this episode of the Café!

The first Climate Bonds Café of 2025! We've got a good one for you...
Today, we sit down with Climate Bonds' Agri-Food Lead, Reyes Tirado to discuss the launch of the Alternative Proteins Criteria. Now, that may not sound the most relevant to your day-to-day, but did you know livestock accounts for 60% of agri-food emissions, yet provides just 17% of global calories and 38% of protein.
Alternative proteins offer a scalable, climate-aligned path to meet growing global food demand — with significantly lower environmental impact. We'll discuss with Reyes the process, the ambitions and the benefits of this world-first for sustainable finance and the food sector.
When it comes to climate change, agriculture is one of the biggest elephants in the room. It is a massive emitter, but also one of the first sectors to feel the heat.
The good news? With the right policies and investments, agriculture can go from being part of the problem to being a huge part of the solution. In this episode of Financing the Future, we talk with Fabio Passaro about the EU's new Vision for Agriculture roadmap, and how smart policy, ambitious action can make the agri industry a climate hero.
The transition to net zero requires trillions in investment, especially in emerging economies. But with limited public funds, how do we unlock private capital to finance climate action?
In this episode of Financing the Future, we explore the critical role of Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) in mobilising private investment. We discuss how DFIs bridge the financing gap for sustainable projects, strategies to manage risk and attract private investors, the $5 trillion green bond market, and the power of data transparency and pipeline development.
Tune in now to discover how DFIs can shape the future of sustainable investment!
A brand new podcast series from Climate Bonds! CEO Sean Kidney and guests enjoy a wide-ranging and candid discussion. This debut episode is an in-depth dialogue around risk; our understandings of risk, the moral conflicts of managing climate risk in our society and posing the question "should climate change be classed as a risk?"
Joining Sean is Nick Silver, author, Founder/Trustee at Radix and co-founder of Climate Bonds Initiative.
Back from Baku, we're joined today by Climate Bonds' Senior Policy Research Analyst, Lily Burge and Senior Transitions Policy Analyst Fabio Passaro to talk COP29.
All the talking points, plus their own ambitions and reflections from the biggest - and most contentious - climate event in the calendar. As we get closer to a crucial round of negotiations, what does success look like?
This week on the Climate Bonds Café, we’re talking agriculture, food and land use, everything you need to know from farm to fork.
There’s so much work to be done, so many costs but also benefits of a food systems transition, as well as the need for this to be an equitable distribution. We hope to inform you, involve you and inspire you.
Joining us:
Maria Alejandra Pulido, EU Sustainability Agri Lead, Climate Bonds Initiative
Kitty Parker-Brooks, Project Manager, Nature and Materials, Systemiq
Kate Newbury-Hyde, Senior Manager, Agriculture and Food, WBCSD

Last week saw the launch of Climate Bonds' new Resilience Taxonomy at ClimateWeek NYC. There are trillions of dollars worth of investible resilience projects now defined by our taxonomy, such as building elevated roads and bridges, flood barriers and levees in cities that are prone to flooding, supporting farmers to adopt drought-resistant crops and irrigation systems, and planting trees, creating parks and restoring wetlands.
We urgently need to get capital flowing to these kinds of projects to help prepare the communities and systems we live in for the impacts of a warmer, less predictable world.
