Protecting our planet for generations to come requires transformative action

Climate change is the defining crisis of our time; a race we are losing, but we can still win. We need to act today. 2023 was the hottest year in human history. Rising temperatures and extreme weather events are already having devastating consequences for communities and nature. And these impacts are profoundly inequitable. They hit the poorest and most vulnerable people and countries first: those least responsible for this crisis.

We are seeing incredible climate momentum, giving glimpses of what is possible. But to date, this action has not delivered at the speed and scale needed to overcome the challenge we face.

At Climate Catalyst we are changing the course of climate change through our problem solving coalitions. 

We tackle the climate challenges that have had less attention to date but hold great potential for collaboration to unlock large-scale emission reductions. We fill a vital gap; working to drive urgent emissions reductions from critical sectors, such as industry and transport, and protecting the vital ecosystems that underpin global efforts towards a net-zero future. 

We invite you to join us in making a profound impact for our people and planet. We are stronger together. 

“Engaging with Climate Catalyst took us out of our comfort zone and it was a very good learning for me and our team. It allowed us to connect intensively to others working on the Nature Restoration Law coalition – also private sector stakeholders. It was a truly transformative campaign.”

Why partner with us?

• Proven track record: Our model has successfully mobilised the business community in support of the EU’s incoming Nature Restoration Law, a key piece of legislation for peatlands protection across Europe, and sparked collective action in India that led to a commitment from the Ministry of Steel to develop a green steel policy. 
• Impactful solutions: We work to drive  political and policy impact through new commitments, policies, legislation, and effective enforcement; and shift investments away from high-polluting activities towards net-zero emission solutions.
• Collaborative approach: We exist to increase the impact of our partners’ work and bring new allies into climate to accelerate change and achieve lasting solutions. We operate behind the scenes, and you won’t see our brand in the news; we believe this is how we can best accelerate progress.
• Transparency and accountability: We uphold the highest standards of ethics and governance, ensuring your donations are used effectively and transparently.

• Give without limits: Unrestricted funding ensures we can be dynamic and innovative and respond quickly to needs and gaps identified with our partners. Whatever you are able to give, we will direct it towards action to address the climate crisis. 
• Direct programme funding: Support specific areas of work aligned with your interests. This could be issue specific, such as decarbonising the steel sector, or achieving net-zero aviation, or based on an approach, such as our work driving investment towards climate solutions, engaging the business community, or building collaboration and capacity amongst civil society. 
• Challenge grants: Spark innovation by matching or multiplying donations that support specific goals or groundbreaking initiatives.
• Partnerships and joint fundraising on specific issue areas: Collaborate with us to leverage your unique expertise and resources to address major climate challenges.
