Climate Solutions is the award-winning podcast from the European Investment Bank. We know that stopping climate change is going to be very expensive. We’ll need to build more wind and solar farms.

And it’s why you should subscribe to the new season of Climate solutions: A dictionary of green finance. New episodes starting from Thursday, April 22nd (E...

If there were a contemporary equivalent of the Beach Boys, they’d be singing about their monthly bus tickets and offering to take their girlfriends for a ride on an electric bike. Total global emissions come from a few main areas of human activity—energy, industry, agriculture…and transport. Our experts look at how mobility will get greener to stop climate change. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The price of what you buy. It’s not the first idea that comes to you, but it makes sense. If things that cause climate change cost more—and things that don’t cause climate change cost less—which things would YOU buy? Are people ready actually to pay to stop climate change? Our experts look at the possibility that possibility that the price of goods will be a decisive factor in stopping climate change. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information....

What’s the connection between cars….Netflix…your new pants…and sausages? If you said, climate change, you were right. Each of these things has an impact on climate change, because making them or running them results in the emission of carbon into the atmosphere. But which of these things would be harder for you to give up, if you had to, to halt climate change? We look at our survey of 30,000 people around the world and ask our experts what the answers mean for climate change—and your pants. Hos...
Has COVID-19 changed our behaviour in ways that might be good for climate change. For example, teleworking, instead of commuting to an office, means fewer carbon emissions and, therefore, is good for the climate. And what about the economic recovery? Are people just so desperate for an end to the COVID-19 recession that they want investment at any cost? Or do they want a green recovery? We look at the results of our massive climate survey and ask the experts what they think it all means. Hosted ...

And whether they’re even worried about climate change at all now that COVID-19 threatens us. Then we spoke to experts about what it all means for the future of our planet. Hosted on Acast.

Do digital devices reduce energy and emissions? Our climate podcast digitalisation episode finds that the answer’s not as clear as you might think Video-conferencing should be good for the environment. Instead of business teams commuting to a single office in vehicles that emit greenhouse gases, they can meet virtually on screen. But if they don’t have to come to an office, the team might end up living far apart, even in different countries. So their occasional meetings could generate a still gr...
When we cool or heat our buildings, we waste a lot of energy—and release emissions that damage the climate. Our climate podcast energy efficiency episode shows how you can turn that around When I was a kid, my dad used to go around the house switching off lights and shouting that we were wasting electricity—in those days that meant we were throwing away money. My eight-year-old daughter goes around the house switching off lights, shouting that we’re wasting electricity—which today means we’re ha...

Why is it so important to know how green a bond is? Our climate podcast green finance episode explains this is crucial to the fight against climate change Any kid with a paint set knows there are lots of different shades of green.

Our climate podcast green finance episode will tell you how big institutions have figured out a set of rules to make sure that you—or the pension fund or bank that...
We don’t have to choose between protecting nature and economic growth. Our climate podcast biodiversity episode details the economic value of nature Some people say we face a straight choice between innovative, thriving human communities and saving the natural world.

Biodiversity is our natural infrastructure. It’s just as important to e...
