Speaker/s

De acuerdo a la Convención Marco de Naciones Unidas sobre Cambio Climático (CMNUCC), la financiación climática es aquella financiación local, nacional o transnacional, proveniente de fuentes públicas, privadas y alternativas, que busca apoyar acciones de mitigación y adaptación al cambio climático. La financiación climática está creciendo rápidamente en todo el mundo. Los bonos verdes emitidos alcanzan más de 2 billones de dólares, siendo China, con mucho, el mayor emisor. ¿Tendrá este campo, relativamente nuevo, de las finanzas un impacto real sobre el cambio climático?
