Description

Join Avinash Persaud, Special Advisor on Climate Change to the President of the Inter-American Development Bank, in the first episode of a series leading up to COP30 in Belém. In clear, jargon-free language, Persaud breaks down the urgent challenges of climate finance—revealing how the world has the resources, technology, and knowledge to act, but not yet the systems to mobilize them. From the staggering returns on resilient infrastructure to the moral imperative of funding climate loss and damage, this episode offers practical solutions for a more equitable and sustainable future.
