From Carbon Markets to Climate Action: Nature-Based Solutions with Sean Penrith
In this episode of the Future of Finance podcast, host Georges Dyer sits down with Sean Penrith, founder and CEO of Gordian Knot Strategies, to explore how capital can be more effectively deployed to combat climate change. With two decades of experience in climate finance, Sean shares insights into the firm’s mission to mobilize $1 billion annually by 2030 through innovative climate investment strategies. They dive into the power and pitfalls of voluntary and compliance carbon markets, the potential of nature-based solutions like reforestation, grassland restoration, and peatlands, and the challenge of aligning returns with impact. Sean also reflects on systemic barriers, the importance of systems thinking, and the role of policy in scaling climate solutions. It’s a deep and candid conversation about connecting capital to climate action—and doing it with integrity.
